As many of You who have delt with SkywayUSA know, they are having a few problems right now with cash flow. Word of warning, You may not get paid for installs or service anytime soon. Many dealers are reporting no pay what so ever for installs over a year ago. I know the company well & have...

-none- .

Costs <p> We charge extra to pole mount superdishes ($75.00 min), I have never mounted a super dish to a house & won't accept any responsibilty for what happens if the Customer requests a house mount. Could You see what might happen to a trailer with 2X2 studs with one of those monsters on it...

Rg6 You will need RG6, if You don't have a problem now, You will sooner or later, You need as much signal/voltage as You can get. By the way, did I mention You need RG6? Let Me repeat USE RG6, Use of RG59 is NOT covered under service agreement & DBS companies will not honor any service...

Installing My advice, (for what it's worth), keep track of Your miles driving, (taxes when You get the 1099), try to find a great deal on cable, (you will use a lot), and most important, keep track of Your jobs and the pay for each one, (getting shorted on pay is not uncommon). I found it...

Installations I can help as far as what one of the retailers pays here, We get $60 for the first box, $20 each after that for standard installs. If We give the sales lead, We get an extra $50. Super Dish add's $85 & I don't care if I do them or not because of pole mounts & concrete. Not many...

Thats what I thought, since the Voom boxes are not able to be "fixed", what use are they since Voom will not activate previous subed boxes? Maybe a boat anchor? If someone has got info on a pirate Voom, (which I doubt) let us know.

What most people forget when it comes to roof mounts is the fact that the cable has to run to the receiver, this means running the cable thru attics, or strapping it to the side of the house, (or worse, wall fish). This makes for a time consumming install, time that could be spent on another...

I charge extra for the 40ft also, but not $80, most of the time it's $50, (unless the customer is going to be a pain in the ass). If You think it's to much, go on your roof & mount the dish yourself, then see what it is worth. Bet you won't do it for a living or you would not be complaining in...

Going from 3 to 4 is no big deal, (assuming you have a quad feed). adding the fifth ird is where you will run into money, you will need a multi switch for that fifth receiver, doubt if Dish will give it to you for free. To keep Your expence down i would suggest four receivers, if that it...

Your DTV dish will work for 61.5, connect the sw21 inputs to both dishes, point the DTV dish at 61.5 & run check switch. On My 811, not only did it identify the Dish Pro feed, it also found the sw21. Works great for CBS HD & Dish HD promo, (thats all I can get on 61.5).

Funny thing about Dish, the only people I see happy with it are the ones getting it for free, alot of Subscribers I see are going to DTV, when, (& IF) Dish goes to MPEG4, I expect more people to go to DTV unless Dish does something to retain Sub's, they are going to be in trouble soon, We are...

I use a dish 500 & installed a 18" dish for 61.5 then connected a sw21 from one side of the Dish 500 & the other side to the 18" dish, did check switch & that was it. I use a 811 for Hi-Def, & a 311 for the bedroom, (wifes tv) :).

Read the small print!!!!! There will be a early termination fee, it is in the paperwork that YOU signed when You had the system installed, TRUST ME! If You have 311's it is around $199 per box, if its PVR's could be as much as $299. Consider Dish paid someone to come out & install it & supplied...

I just got one of those Dish TV's In My opinion they are great deals, depending on how much You pay for one, I got Mine for $636, (40" rear project), although I don't have a good HDTV signal yet, the DVD's are great in progressive scan. If You don't want to spend big bucks for HDTV, they are...

Voom will survive I agree with Your comments Mr Mota. Voom has a lot, ( & I mean alot) of money behind it, not to mention they are the best HDTV provider in the world. I Don't think they are going anywhere soon. :yes

Always get a second opinon Before You decide NOT to get Dish, get a second opinon of the site, maybe ask for a senior Tech or installer. Maybe ask what You can do to make the install more easy for the installer. Sometimes when I go to a job & see more work than normal I will say LOS, (line...

LOS (line of sight) Would it not be funny if the apartment did not have a view of the southwest sky & the installer had to turn it in as a LOS issue? :D

Ppc Ex6 Me too! I bought a few cases of the EX-6's & found that they are excellent connectors for the money, just modify a decent compression tool & Your ready for them. If You look at some of the connectors on the market today, You see some cost as much as 28 cents each, I can get the EX-6...

Why installers work? "Do you compensate your prewired customers? I certainly understand your desire to earn a living and you should certainly charge for additional services, however some of your charges seem petty and shouldn't be a consideration when going that extra mile to provide excellent...

Free Wall fish........ HA I have installed over 400 DSS systems & never, repeat never done a wall fish for free. And never will, D* & E* can come out & show Me how to do them for free because I doubt that I will EVER learn how. I bet Eargen won't do them in person for free. If You do wall...

Got it setup, 40" Hey this is not a bad unit at all, bright clear pic. One issue, NO REMOTE, these were made to sell with a Dish HD STB, the remote supplied with the STB, (from dish) will control it. However if You get one I found out the newer remotes from dish will work, use code 7-4-2. The...

Don't worry about how far, I installed a system with over 180' of RG6 with no problem, You will need to run a line from the dish to each STB, (ie: seperate cable for each receiver).

You won't need the 4 x 8, 3 x 8's less exspensive and work fine, We use DTV multi switches all the time for Voom.
