    Request for new WIRING.

    If you read the whole thread it was about RUNNING CABLE in a home with no technical aspect discussed / involved: it was Wall Fishing Vs Drilling to run a cable; that's all! Somehow the $15 an hour was mentioned as not being enough as pay to do that... and in essence my comment was directed at...

    Thanks everybody for the help... I decided against having a Dish installed for the time being.

    Will I need to pull more cable to upgrade from SD to HD?

    That is not very encouraging to have a new Dish TV installed....

    Request for new WIRING.

    . About 10 years ago I was living in a 200 unit Condo complex and the Cable Co (Darkhouse) decided to update/replace all the wiring in every unit ( everyone had cable as part of the monthly Fee). So they had a crew of 5 or 6 go from unit to unit to run the new cable (did not even bother to...

    Request for new WIRING.

    Installing Cable I don't think one needs the skills of an electrician to run cables! Installing cables for a Cable co or a Dish Tv is learned in a matter of days, and does not require the same training as an electrician. $15 an hour is more than what the majority of unskilled labor get... and...

    Request for new WIRING.

    Nice to know! I will be calling Dish Net, and If he doesn't wallfish the lines and properly ground the outside dish, I will cancel the deal and installation... I don't need it that bad! Or if I have to deal directly with the installer, and he doesn't do it my way... I will simply not let him...

    Request for new WIRING.

    "Yep you can. They'll probably do that anyway, especially if it's the old crappy RG-59 cable, which is what they used 25 years ago." Thanks... Who do I ask? The installer? . Another question: Why do they ask if you have a land line phone and/or cable internet, if they do not intend to hook up...

    Newbie needs ur expert advice

    $400 ! That is an insane amount.... I bet most of it is for the phone ... I switched to OOMA phone service, and my bill for unlimited local and long distance calls is $0 for the last 18 months. All I had to pay for is to buy the equipment ($200)... today they charge slightly more for taxes for...

    Request for new WIRING.

    I am getting Dish-net installed and I would like to know if I can request that they install a totally new separate wiring for it, and not to hook up into the Cable wiring already in place? I want new wiring because the one I have is 25yrs old, and had some problems with it.. I have Internet...

    DVR Fees ? I don't get it. Answer please

    I don't really see any advantage of Dish TV over Cable... Dish may starts at 39.95 after the Promo and when you add a receiver or 2 with DVR Fees, and a "Service Plan" which Cable does not have ... one ends up with a bill much higher than cable... not counting the Service Calls!! PS. I made a...

    DVR Fees ? I don't get it. Answer please

    I just ordered DishNet and they gave me for 2 TVs : 1 receiver 222 at no monthly fee; but when I changed that to 2 : "211 HD Solo receivers", they charged a $7 monthly fee! How come?
