Hey guys: I plan to install a Slimline 3 SWM dish at my vacation cabin. I just purchased the SL3 SWM model dish. My question is what other items would I need to make this install go simpler. I will need 2" diameter pole, understand this is not usually found at places like HomeDepot or...

Thanks, So sounds like I may only really need the Slimline-3 but might one day wish I had the Slimline 5 model, due to future channel additions, etc. etc. What does having a HD DVR as one of your 2 HD rcvrs due to the dish setup? At some point I would have to have more than one line running...

I am having Directv installed next week. Choice Extra programming with HD and locals in NC. This will be a two HD receiver install. Directv installer will perform this install, with proper equipment, I presume. I will sometimes be using the 2nd receiver at my vacation home on occasions...

I will be switching to DirectTV in the next week, as upgrade to HD with Dishnetwork is not cost effective. Direct will likely send Tech to do a install of new DirectTV dish (removing Dishpro500) and bring me new HD Dvr and second HD Rcvr. I would like to carry the standard HD RCVR to my...

Does anyone know if there is a difference between Dishnetwork and DirectTV when it comes to taking your spare rcvr on weekend trips to a 2nd home. As far as problems go with getting things to work. I currently have Dishnetwork and have been taking rcvr to vacation home now for 5+ years...

I am not under contract, my contract expired about 10 years ago. I currently have an older 508DVR that I don't pay a DVR fee for. and a 311 rcvr. I want the Gold250 package, but with HD and Locals in HD. The realize that my costs are going to increase, but the reason that I made the...

Currently have the Gold 250 package (SD) for $57.99 plus I have two purchased receivers, so am paying a $5.00 addl. rcvr fee. My current bill is $62.99 I am pulling HD locals OTA currently. I am looking to upgrade satellite package to HD with locals on the dish. The quote that I am...

But when the installer shows up I only have two TV's. I tried to google the Slingbox, but it only talks about remotely accessing the the DVR, says nothing about Sling giving me ability to watch TV at second location. Also, don't have internet access at beach location.

I don't think this has anything to do with TV Everywhere. Isn't that just remotely accessing your DVR to control recording. Such as during bank robbery, as in the commercial!!!

When I call Dish to do an HD upgrade to both TV's in the house, they are likely to want to simply install 1 dual rcvr, but I would prefer 2 separate rcvrs so it will be simpler to take the 2nd to the beach, without having to unhook my main setup. They will have to upgrade my current dish, I...

Hey guys: I currently have SD setup with DishPVR 508 and 311 recvrs owned. I take my 311 to our 2nd home during the summer and hook it up to watch TV, while we are there. I know this is in the gray area of legality, but as I understand it, as long as I bring the rcvr back each time and am...

Halalooya, lost my bid tonight for the 322 unit, which after hearing from you all would have caused me problems. (Since no phone connection). I think that I will get a 311 or 301 unit. Deactivate my old 301 that has recently gone on the blink and just have DN activate the new unit as my 2nd...

Looks like I should have had this discussion, before I placed my bid on the 322 unit on ebay this morning. As fate would have it, this is one bid that I will probably win. I'll just resell it or something. What's the difference between the 311 and the 301 units? Since I don't have a phone...

I appreciate the feedback you guys are great. My current receivers (501 & 301) have never been connected to phoneline. Dishnetwork installer told me not to worry about it, as long as PPV was not an issue. He hooked it up, not me. Does the 322 "have" to be connected to phone line? No phone...

Here is a dealer on ebay that is offering 322 units for sale for about 60-70 bucks. If this is indeed true, do you see a problem with purchasing this 322 for use as I stated previously? I would just activate it at home and then carry this 322 unit to the cabin and connect to a separate...

Next question - My 2nd receiver that I am paying for has recently gone bellyup. Talked with DN techs and they agree it is not seeing satellite. So this 301 receiver needs to be replaced. I see newer 322 receivers that allow me to get 2 tuner feeds. Since I have to buy a rcvr anyway, what...

Hey guys. My question is, If I have an existing account with Dishnetwork with 2 rcvrs. Can I take one of these activated receivers to my fishing camp, install a separate dish, purchased from ebay or somewhere and watch TV while at the camp, while only paying DN the extra $5.00 for the...
