New box equals another line that needs run from the dish.

DTA - Don't Trust Anybody, i'm sorry but your wife giving out her CC number was the dumbest thing ever. If something in this world seems to good to be true, it is. Stand back and be as careful as can be while addressing the situation. It takes a lot for me to believe making easy money is as easy...

As soon as you sign your paperwork for the install, you are considered an existing customer and no longer a new customer.

To have the 5 dollar phone line charge removed from your bill, call Dish and tell them that you will cancel your service if they don't remove it. Oh wait, you have to wait till hell freezes over before that one works, nope your screwed.

Its customers like that that wonder why us as techs go out of our way to no site customers that are just like that. Trust me, you can always tell these customers a mile away, they are so damn picky about everything to a tee. Its people like this that drove me away from installing because of all...

The best way for you to peak 129 would be to go to the signal screen via menu 611, go to 129 sat and what ever transponder you want will work. Have someone stand at the tv and you go out to the dish. Now if youre getting some 129, then this will work. Ever so slightly without unloosening any...

I know this might sound stupid but three things. Do you have caller ID service on your phone service? Do you have the caller ID enabled from the 625 menu? Is the phone jack you have connected to the 625 working?

I so fully agree, if a customer orders a 4 room system, then they need to have 4 tv's, one at every location. The one thing I hated about working for Dish is the customers that order a 1 room system and when you show up, they change their mind to a 4 room and me as an installer having 2 more 4...

Switch to dish network, they have dual tuner receivers that use whats called DP Plus. Plus means one line passes 2 signals that are stacked frequencies and you use whats called a DP seperator which is similar to a splitter to seperate the signal. This is what you need and Direct tv right now...

Ok, this debate is going no where. Ive spoken my mind and views, take it how you will.

But isn't the whole idea of needing a warranty due to the units over heating, yes overheating is the only technical flaw with the 360. So by water cooling it, who cares about warranty, it won't be needed. Thats only my opinion though which other will disagree with.

If anyone is scared of getting charged by Dish, just cancel the credit card you have attached to the account and get another credit card. Walla, they can't charge you if they don't have a card to charge to.

OK here is the ultimate solution for the people that have gone thru multiple 360's. Just water cool it like I did on mine and you will never have a heat issue ever.

Having my receiver connected to a phone line is BS. Whats dish going to require 10 years from now, that my receiver be connected to my fridge, stove, or what the heck my vacume cleaner even. The phone line does not make a bit of difference when it comes to watching tv. Yeah the points I just...

Alright, heres the truth about how to get your signal back. Take your receiver and disconnect it from the TV. Proceed to take it out side. Place it in the middle of the lawn. Go to your garage and get sledge hammer. Take hammer and proceed to smack receiver in the middle 10 times, not to hard...
