    HR44 775 dswm-21

    Hi everybody! I'm having a strange-ish issue with my HR44. I'm lucky enough to be on a dual-genie setup, but I've been living in apartments for the last few years, so I haven't been able to hook both up. With my most recent installation, though, I had a DSWM-21 installed, and just didn't have...

    Self Managed MDU?

    Hi All! My wife works at a facility that has an MDU set-up that is just... well, bad. I've been there a couple of times, and nothing is really up to standard. I'm not an installer anymore (and don't want to return to that lifestyle), but I was talking with their building manager, and he said...

    How do I deal with a shady MDU provider?

    So, after being transferred out of Home Services (yay!) and relocating to Denver, I've found that it is ridiculously difficult to get an installation at my new apartment. On one hand, I've got my apartment manager that is telling me that they have no problem with me throwing a dish up on my...

    Building a tailgating setup

    I'll be doing a "teambuilding exercise" at a football game with my wife and am wanting to build a tailgater dish. I plan to attach (modify) a SWM3 LNB to a 18x20 dish so that I can have a compact rig, and then mount it on an old nonpen that I've pulled from a temporary job. What I need to know...

    HR34s are making a (small) comeback

    Visited the warehouse today and lo and behold, there were no 44s on my pallet, and in their place were a bunch of HR34-700CRs. That's right, refurbished 34s. I've still got 6 44s on my truck, but I've been told to reserve them for service calls on 44s. Our warehouse got several full pallets of...

    A more exotic setup

    I'm getting ready to add my DirecTV service to my houseboat. I've been installing for a couple of years now, so I know my way around some of the hardware, but there's a lot about SWM that I'm still discovering. I need to have a dish at the dock, preferably using an SLS5 SWM lnb, and then I'll...

    Shady Directv Sales Practices

    For the past couple of years, I've been working as a retail salesperson and installer for a local company. We do directv, dish, verizon, office supplies, and whatever else. I was gone on Active Duty military for the last year or so, and during that time, my manager developed a gray practice of...

    Signal Separator

    I just got a directv dvr, and I've got a multiswitch on the roof already, but I'd prefer to add something like a signal separator like dish network has for all of their dual-tuner recievers... I'm an installer for both, but I don't understand why dish network can do that, but directv can't. Even...
