Possible Explanation? Dish is raising costs mainly due to the increased programming costs to them from the providers. I mean just look at the Viacom fiasco and the other providers they've been fighting with. They have to re-negoiate with someone probably every other day. Also, the premiums...

I believe the oribital location is 85 degrees west...not 100% sure though

yup A few things The reason that you don't have tracking information is 1) the obvious that you already know, the receiver is on back order. also 2) expedited shipping actually goes through fedex, not UPS. Also, the $549 through dish is a promo cost in that it includes the installation...
