Oh yea. in this case the pole was 130 feet from the house hidden behind trees. Luckily they had a conduit for cable and telephone wire running to the pole.

It depends on what is on the pole. If it is a pole with only your meter and circuit breaker box on it, then the pole is yours. You paid for it for service to your house and as long as there is not any high voltage lines and transformers on it, it's yours. I have gotten in this argument before...

That is not very mcuh for two way sat install. Quite a few companies are paying $250 for direcway installs.

They aint paying very much for the installs.

You would probably need dishes that are this big- http://www.nrao.edu/imagegallery/images/VLA729_med.jpg :D

No. The T90 requires reverse polarized LNBs. No one offers a stacked reverse polarized LNB. You can only use stacked (dish pro) LNBs with a DPP44 switch.

What does the check switch say ?

Dish home is on TP 29 on the 110 bird, so thats probably how they provide it. It would not take very much bandwidth for 6 very small windows of those channels.

Come on guys. You should be more sensitive. What would these women do if they couldn't watch their "Victim TV" channel. ;)

The $250 lease upgrade is very reasonable. Dish just needs to to offer to long time customers, rather than making them buy it for $500 or whatever it is. When you do the math the $250 is cheaper. Cable wants $20 bucks a month for a HD DVR, but dish only wants $5 a month (once you get past the...

Dish did have to pull the channel. If you do not have a contract (because it expired), then you can not legally broadcast the channel. I still think this stuff is dumb. In 7 months they could not come up with a solution. I'm just lucky that the women I have sold dish to haven't noticed it yet.

My point is not against the customer, it is against dish network. I would expect the customer to do what they have to to get a good deal. My point is that dish network should not be doing this to their long time customers. The customer should not have email CEO or whatever to get the lease...

It's pretty sad that long time loyal customers have to do that kind of stuff just to get upgraded.

Regardless of whose fault it is, they should send the guy another remote. He didn't lose, break, steal or keep it. It's funny to hear all these nickel and dime people stick up for dish over a remote that the guy SENT BACK TO DISH. Do you really think it cost dish $32 for a remote. I would...

While I can see Charlie's pint of view, I think that this is satellite suicide to pull this channel. I imagine that i will be getting calls from some people i have sold dish to about this. Some were women and some were men in house holds were their wife's wear the pants. I agree with the...
