    Moving Question

    We are moving into an apartment which has already been wired up for Directv (fairly new dish, HD ready etc.) and I have a couple of questions: 1. Should we still schedule the free mover's installation? We may need the cable to be extended form it's current termination point in the apartment, so...

    Do I have a SWM LNB?

    I had my first D* service installed back in February (HD-DVR) and am using the Mover's Connection next week. I currently have a single HR22 receiver and there is a single coax cable running to it - does this mean I have one of the newer LNBs with a SWM built into it? I'd like to keep this setup...

    Options for Splitting HR-22 Output?

    We have a single HD-DVR (HR-22) supplying a single HDTV and are looking to get a 2nd HDTV for the bedroom. Considering we are about to use the Mover's Connection we could potentially get a deal on a 2nd HD-DVR, which I'm guessing would be $99 at best, and an extra $60 in fees per year, as well...

    Moving House Concerns

    OK, so I've been a new D* customer since Feb-2009 and I really enjoy it (HD-DVR-PLUS service). However, I'm going to be moving to a new home soon and I am little concerned that the new owner may not permit a dish to be installed (assuming there is a line-of-sight to the satellite in the first...

    Best Sound Quality from HD-DVR

    I currently pass the audio from my HR-22 with a HDMI cable to my LCD-TV, and then output the analog audio from the TV to a stereo amplifier (no digital input on amp). Would I see much of an improvement if I used the optical digital audio output (from either the TV or the HR-22 itself) and...

    OnDemand Question

    Is the Showtime OnDemand content available to people who don't subscribe to the Showtime channel? My 3-month free Showtime offer is ending next week, but I've recently started watching Season 3 of The Tudors and am loathed to pay $12/month purely for a single show! I'm guessing not, but it's...

    Cancelling Premium Channels

    As a new customer, I have been getting HBO, Starz and Showtime free for 3 months. My 3rd month is just about to start and I see that I am billed in advance for premiums. What happens if I cancel part of the way into a month - do I get a rebate for the days I did not receive the service? Reason...

    AT&T Bundling Discount

    I am a D* subscriber and currently do not have either a landline or an internet service (my apartment is wired for both telephone and cable though). I am interested in getting an AT&T DSL service through my telephone line, but am not interested in the telephone. I understand they do a DSL-only...

    Charged for Local Channels?

    I've been with D* for around 7 weeks now and have the HD-Plus DVR package, which has my local channels included. However, today a charge appeared in the "Recent Activity" section of my D* website account page, which I've not seen before: Your Local Channels - Charge $4.00 When I look at my...

    Switching Premium Channels

    As a British ex-pat, I am interested in getting soccer coverage (specifically the Premiership, or EPL as you call it here) and understand that there are basically two sources - FSC (which is part of the Sports Pack) and Setanta. I was wondering - considering I am only really interested in...

    New User - Questions

    Hi - new D* customer here - got hooked up with the HD-DVR-Plus package this week - got the HR22 receiver. First impressions are very good - absolutely love the HD stuff and I am new to DVRs too (last time I recorded something was on VHS about 9 years ago!). The only nightmare was getting the...

    Flat Roof Dish Install

    Was scheduled to have my DirecTV installed today (HD Plus DVR Package; new customer) but the installer said he didn't have the necessary equipment to install it on the flat roof on my apartment building. He said it would require a "pin-mount" or something, and that it would cost an additional...
