This is one I don't get... why does Dish not carry the Sprout (PBS Kids) channel? It seems like it would be a channel that isn't that costly to carry, given PBS, and is VERY popular amongst the kids my daughter is in class with. Is there a major reason that I just can't find?

...off for a year... starting in the 2nd to 4th month of service, if they do the rebate stuff right. I even paid a customer's bill for 2 months when D* pulled the "submit your rebate online before activation and it will start on your first month's bill" then had computer problems not apply it...

I have had this happen with a customer before. There are special "VIP" customers that get highly discounted or free service. My third customer ever they accidentally canceled my OE number after I entered there order (something wasn't entered right when they built my account) and it had to be...

Landlord had the house wired his way and had all of the wires hidden. He does not want another wire or hole drilled in his new siding (although he has no problem with a second dish on a post). I can flatwire through a window that is right next to both the second dish and the TV, so that's all...

Ok, this is a strange one... So a customer has a converted house... they got dish installed a month or so ago, so they are an eastern arc customer. They decided they need a tv on the far wall of the garage in their house... however restrictions, a cement slab foundation in the garage, and a...

I remember it being on this site... I swear it was... a list of what satellite was broadcasting what channel. I just can't find it. The reason I ask is because I have a customer that wants to pick up dish, has 2/3 perfect LOS and 1/3 partially block LOS on the 1000.4 He only really wants 2...

a cheap $15 sat-buddy type meter will work great for you. You can use it both to detect signal and on the other end to detect voltage. (since it is powered by the receiver it won't turn on unless your line has voltage.) The other alternative is the built in signal meter, which if you suspect...

In this configuration couldn't you just put up a 500 pointed at the 110/119 and plug it into the input port on the 1000.4's LNB? Since everything this person needs from the 129 is on the 61.5 they wouldn't need anything more and would be looking at 5 satellite locations.... right? (Isn't there...

To add to the question... If they are going HD are the only two new customer HD options a 1000.2 or 1000.4 or are there areas, say in california, that would require anything different?

I believe the answer is yes. Let me check to make sure before you take that to the bank. I would check to make sure that he can get welcome pack on his owned equipment outside of a "free-for-all". I don't think it should be a problem... but this is E* we are talking about!

If you go with a local retailer you should have no problem if the equipment is available from the distributor.

I am doing a HD upgrade for a customer that has called me recently regarding signal problems and also wants the HD upgrade (625 to 622). So, I have gone out there (unfortunately due to weather the customer couldn't get away from work on time (plow driver), but I know the guy so I checked out...

Personally I have not seen a real big difference and I have both services at my house... then again I am not all that particular about it either. If there is any difference I am sure it is not worth the hassle or time involved in switching companies.

I know what he isn't saying anything about it! What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas! :D lol

...switch after you get the signal back it should find it... yes? I would listen to this gentleman over myself because I am honestly not very good a E* and I am sure he knows far more than I do... I am replying to ask him a question myself and not to doubt his word. P.S. Ned's Navy > Bubba's...

Maybe :D Considering you have gone through all of the trouble to have already written it, you might as well send it in!

Think about it... I have seen it reported that D* pays 700 mil to get exclusive rights to the ticket and only makes back 300 mil on Sunday Ticket fees. This is the real world and you know the NFL is going to want more next time around and the thought of them asking 1 billion or more is not...

That is not likely... Futhermore if anyone makes to move to make the package non-exclusive to D* I think it would likely be D* that makes that decision. Right now DTV pays an OUTRAGEOUS amount to the NFL for exclusive rights to the ticket and doesn't make up even half of what they pay on...

I have learned with Dish that all roads lead to a check switch at the end... it's like a toll booth. Sounds to be like you are heading in the right direction (The foil is a new one on me though) and if the skew is off by 10 degrees then that may just be the problem... IF IF your mast (the...

:eek: P.S., I wouldn't be out of luck, I have D* and E* at home.

Eastern Arc is up in a lot of markets... maybe yours is there and the LOS possibilities in S.C. for the E. Arc are a LOT better than the SW was!

Some HD receivers can be made into an HD DVR by adding an external hard drive, not sure which ones really... if your can that may work and dish has a fee to do it as well. Otherwise you can get an HD DVR at full retail (avoid if at all possible), from a retailer at a discount through Dish'n it...

1. It's a type of account where you pay for the equip and own the equip but the dealer still makes a commission so they will include your install for free. 2. Phone book or a dish CSR might refer you if you ask. 3. You should so long as you left on good terms, if the computer says no the...

bleh

P.S., I am a Dish dealer :D
