Xenia, Ohio...east of Dayton... Sounds as if I may be screwed anyway...based on the distance from the dish to the receiver...

Skylink! But the CSR couldn't give me a number. So I googled it.Boy am I depressed now...

Closer not really an option for me...thanks to a house buried in the woods. Bummer! Maybe I have to wait for Charlie to get Speed HD after all... At least my 211 w/ external hard drive works good... How do I find out who my HSP is in advance of the install?

OP...don't follow... Guess I'm not smart enough to understand the difference between the two companies that would let Dish work just fine at that distance (with a cheapie Radio Shack amplifier near the receiver end) and Direct not work. It must be the SWM? What do I give up without the 2nd...

I wrote to ceo@echostar.com on Friday asking specifically about Speed HD. The reply was "no information available about that" or some such nonsense, but they would forward my request to programming. This is deal breaker for me and I told them so. Amazing that a member of their "Problem...
