    Need Installer in Houston TX - any suggestions?

    "There is a $50 relocation fee for this service as well as a $95 technician fee. We can add the Dish Protect plan today, which would cover the $95 portion." And THIS is why I didn't want to go through DISH to find an installer. Last time I had an issue with a receiver, they added that...

    Need Installer in Houston TX - any suggestions?

    "Well, Have YOU searched for any local installer?" Of course I have - I would not have posted here, looking for help, if I had been able to find somebody. Lots of ways to get a TV mounted, or to BUY Dish service, but I apparently am not looking in the right places to find somebody to install...

    Need Installer in Houston TX - any suggestions?

    Long story short - we've had a DISH account since the Washington DC market was first opened up eons ago. Over the years, I have always bought and installed my own equipment (in fact, that was the only choice you had with my very first setup!) but now I need help. We had to take the dish down for...

    I'm anti-commitment. What can I say? <G> Never been on a cell phone contract, either. Looks like the 722k is out best choice. Thanks for all the input!

    Long time user needs new equipment

    Thanks folks - I really am not interested in leasing. Never have, don't see any reason to start now. More than that, though, I am not seeing what a hopper is going to get me - this is a one TV setup, we watch one show at a time, most of what gets recorded is sports stuff to be watched ASAP and...

    Long time user needs new equipment

    It is time to upgrade. My 612 receiver came up with a hard disk failure message this morning. While the receiver itself is just a bit over a year old, the dish is probably 15 years old, and it only gets 2 sats. (DishProPlus Twin, I have written down somewhere.) Since my husband has started...

    Help - No signal - LNBF?l

    >Any possibility the dish might have been knocked out of alignment? Not terribly likely, but I'll get the level and check it out tomorrow. That is the probably the only thing we didn't check today - and by the time I thought of it, the sun was down and we were working by flashlight! Linda

    Help - No signal - LNBF?l

    After several weeks of no Dish TV, it was time to do some troubleshooting. Both the box ( Dish 512 Solo) and the LNBF (DishProPlus Twin) were replaced less than a year ago. In fact the LNBF has been replaced twice in the last year, since the first one went bad in less than 3 months. The...
