    Follow up on Value Electronics

    Just as promised: Heard from Robert today. He was very helpful and apologetic. Refunded twice what they normally do for the trouble. He offered as well to be helpful in the future with any issue. I just wish I would have asked for him directly earlier. He agreed that he should stand by...

    I'm sorry if this all comes across as whining. By now this thread is getting tired but.......I agree that sometimes things happen. They do in my field as well. The title probably was a little harsh but if I titled it '"'m upset" would it have generated the responses here? Doubt it. I...

    Stay away from Value Electronics!

    I know VE is a sponsor here, and in fact, that is why I choose them to get my equipment. I have been monitoring this forum awhile in preparation for moving from cable to D*. Since they are generally regarded as service oriented, I went with them 1 month ago or so when I decided to purchase...

    Install help please!

    Thanks everyone for the help. I figured out the problem, I had the antenna input and one of the satellite inputs into the multiswitch reversed. I put the antenna cable into the correct input in the multiswitch and now all is well! I figured it out by bypassing the multiswitch. Once I...
