    Dish Network Tech job interview-- what questions to expect? Tips to impress?

    They will train you on the job about everything you need to know. You won't learn a lot but they will try. Tech skills help but they will hire someone who has worked at a grocery store for 30 years

    Does Dish really install on weekends?

    I've worked every holiday the past three years. Did an install Christmas morning first thing.

Had another job another...

    Two receivers - One cable

    Back to Dish after 3 years away

    Eastern arc is only needed in certain markets or is an option for Los issues. Get a 722k with a sling adapter. Your 501 will work but not for long either
