    Slightly complex (maybe) Dish installation question

    There would be two lines from the dish. Those two lines have to go somewhere to what is called a node. I am guessing that the 1:2 splitter you see is actually a tap. The tap says Host/Client on it. That host line would be going to your hopper and only your hopper. The client line can be...

    Mirroring a Joey

    You have a tv in your bathroom?? lol How far away is the other location? You'd either want a really long rca cable, or get a modulator and hook the joey's rca out to the modulator and run coax to the other location. both options will not give you hd though at the second location. As far as...

    Going for 2nd interview and need advice

    Good luck to you. Trust me, it's not a dream job. Not by far. But I won't bash it although there are a lot of negatives. There are positives to, such as a paycheck lol. Dish is a very micro managed company. I could go on and on. Best of luck though, it can be rewarding. But as someone...

    Medal of Honor Warfighter 'Official Gameplay Trailer' [1080p] TRUE-HD QUALITY

    Too bad actually. It's not battlefield, but I really enjoy the game. Specifically the multiplayer. Graphics are good and weapons customization is nice. Of course I'm not a fan of the MW or COD games so maybe that's why. I do think all the bad reviews were a bit unjustified though.

    Feeling a little sorry for the installer when I move

    Yep. You're work sounds like custom work. Techs get the catch 22 there. They have time frames to maintain. They cannot charge anything for custom labor. You are getting a "free" install. So it's pretty hard to find the tech that is going to devote his whole day to custom labor. I always...

    signal strength

    I would think that if the tree was in the way it would go out all the time, not just when it's cloudy or raining. Unless the tree is blocking just enough that you are barely getting signal to begin with. Unless it's a massive tree you should be getting some stations fine and others would go...

    Dish Network CEO says label as America’s worst company to work for is “ridiculous”

    Offer any one of the upper management pinheads a proposition. Start at any entry level position, tech/csr/etc. last 6 months. No special treatment, you're just a name and number. And live on that salary. If you happen to get fired along the way you don't go back to your manager job, your...

    Can someone recommend a Satellite Meter capable of working w/ multi lnb dishes particularly Dish 100

    Good luck. 1000.2 dish pro plus will be hard to aim with any meter in that price range. At least to aim "quickly". You may find an older bird dog, but that's a stretch. If you did you'd want to be sure it was updated or that you had the cable to update it yourself. Super buddy is the way to...
