    Should I be able to get a signal here? (photos included)

    I also have trees. You should have growth issues due within 12 to 24 months. I was up to high. Going lower to the ground, the offset angle can clear. My only option was a ground mount. Worked better than the original way. From what you learned you should be able to do it yourself. Find an...

    First Look: DISH 381 Receiver

    This is the real deal. First time Scott was fooled. Total cost: # 3 stencil, paint, refurbed cutom painted carboard box, used newspaper for packing, flag all MPEG 2 HD. That new service center announced, is where its going on. I think the FCC, requires the price to be $50. Wrong...

    Nothing will be done until Dish finds out how Internationals work on 118.7. 105 should have been turned back to SES-Americom by now, must be the 129 complaints Also those Superdishs & phased out 1000's need some more collecting to be refabricated. 118.7, won't work for Laredo, Harlingen...

    Playboy Hd

    Must be talking about Spice HD, owned by Playboy, the most recent to vanish. Spice web site has disappeared. Playboy HD disapeared when Cablevision folded Voom. I believe there is currently no HD porn. Canadian Starchoice has Hustlertv, no HD.

    It's Amost Ready.... :)

    I'm late jumping in...if your out of the AT&T service area, you can hook up to Satellite, use all of its options on the AT&T ird, & service And billing to AT&T. If Dish upgraded the 622 to all the fancy 2WIRE options, colors, fancy guide, you could still pick AT&T. Did't know if this part was...

    EPG doesnt work with the switch

    Good points. I have all of the equipment sitting here doing nothing. I picked up a D phase one interchagable LNB position dish just to have its 4x4 switch. And, a friend of mine moved, he was lazy to take his Dish 500 Legacy dual single's with him. I reminded him & even offered to retrieve...

    Dish Pan Swap

    What really makes no sense, the dish 500 won't allow the 21 switch to accept 129. I never knew this. Reminds me, the 21 switch won't accept 2 ku fss linear sats, or rather 121 & 105 together. Any other sat combinations are fine. We found this out when those poistions debuted. No fw updates...

    The 4 digit H or V are C band. The 5 digit H or V are Ku. C band listings always follow first in order. No quality control on fta irds. The foreign standards differ from North America. They don't have our sats, HD, AC3, MPEG4, to test in manufactoring.. Some fta irds have adjustable scan...

    Why won't Dish authorize my 622?

    I was shocked, not once was I asked who installed, the signal stregth, type of dish, switchs, etc. Later they wanted to charge me $99 for the install I did. Gave me a fictious date they did the install. Sounded like it was scripted. Got it dropped. Call at night you get a different breed of...

    This site and Favoritism between DIRECTV and Echostar...

    When D*'s numbers hit a certain point, Scott will let us know D* is now talking to him in paragraphs and sending him items to review. E* realized Scott's impact and increasing site members counted. D* doesn't think Scott is necessary, E* does and welcomes Scott. If I were D*, I'd have...

    Greatly improved 129 signal strength!

    When I hook up a meter to 129, I can watch it slowly move up or down. What pissed me off a couple of weeks ago, it was a Saturday thru Monday, I lost 129 completly, but my meter still showed 20%. I spent a lot of time replacing cable, all connections, etc thinking I was stupid. Come Tuesday...
