I have recently moved to Dish from D* and was planning to try and sell my old Hughes TiVo unit before they are obsolete. I have seen them on Ebay both with and without the access card. Is there some reason that I would not want to sell it with the card? Thought I'd ask those in the know before I...

Actually, D* did offer up a credit to offset the cost of a receiver but it was too late. The addition of Voom put my decision over the top to begin with but now that I see the PQ is better all the way across the board, I'm very pleased with the switch.

:D I just got my install yesterday, 2 room setup with 942 and HD, $250 lease fee, $19.99 for 180 for 3 months, 6 months free HD pack, second dish free (for locals) called and added Voom this morning $5 per month. Other than dealing with CSR's that wanted to charge $100 if we ordered Voom when...

Grounding issue Run a ground wire inside yourself, get a grounding clamp from the hardware store, put it on a cold water line (assuming you have copper lines), done! :)

How to test for OTA prior? If I understand correctly, the 942 won't work for OTA until activated. How would I test the OTA prior to install if I don't have another OTA receiver? Will the 942 display signal strength even if it isn't activated yet? They are shipping the equipment to me so I'm...

Just signed up last night and will be having a 942 installed in 2 weeks. I also want to add OTA but I'm curious how I should handle that portion of the install. As I see it I have 3 main options: 1) Install myself ahead of time and run coax to the receiver location 2) Install Pay the installer...

2nd attempt Called back after being told would need to pay $100 for the second dish even though 2 dishes are required for locals. Same story second rep, explained again that they have to provide dish 2 free due to locals. Rep insisted that if we want Voom there is a $100 activation fee fo new...

$100 fee :confused: Can someone that has successfully ordered today confirm that there is not a $100 fee to add Voom if you already have the second dish? I was trying to become a new dish customer today (from D*) and they want to charge me $100 even though I get a free second dish for some of...

Pita :mad: Called to order - I'm not a Dish customer currently. Was told that we need a second dish for some of our locals. We told them we wanted it. When we told them we also wanted to get Voom they said it would cost $100 for the second dish. We told them it should be free due to locals...

Gearing up? I've been sitting on the sidelines waiting for announcements to make a decision which way to go for HD. I'm a current D* customer but not impressed with the price of admission to HDTivo. The E* announcements have made my decision to make the change but now what do I need to order? I...
