why did the installer say they couldn't do an eave mount? do some only want to mount to wood and not stucco? i was thinking eave mount too but unfortunately took his word for it. they even carry the eave mount hardwarem Can I ask for a supervisors supervisor or do they not give a damn?

This comes after two fruitless installer visits that were both late and told me what I already knew being an avid reader of D* forums. Had they called the night before it would have saved time. First pic is my fascia board. The DirectSat Installer said the location is okay but fascia board is...

Is there a limit or will D* get nasty if you frequently change your programming so you can watch whatever you want? i.e. HBO to get Entourage then switch to STARZ for a couple good movies on Friday then back to HBO on Sunday for Entourage again? The change is so fast it would be easy but I...

Wait. If I orde my PPV online I could watch it on any ofmy TVs? Say, watch half of the movie downstairs then half upstairs? I thought when you ordered online it made you check a bx for the receiver you want the PPV on.

And they will accept this printed one? Thanks.

Can I get the rabte with a printed out form from online ,or does the rebate form come with my bill?

Sweet. Must Ivo free Skinemax

I still have my round dish with my HD Tivo until installation comes next week. yet I get West Coast CBS and NBC HD. Does the round dish pick up these two feeds or am I just getting an SD version of them? On my SD Tivo upstairs they don't even show in the guide.

happy Customer Both VE and D* have made me a happy customer. It just goes to show how attention to the customer, whatever the motivation, can make a sub happy. First off, Robert has been very helpful to all of us. I got my credits from D*, ordered from VE yesterday and got here today. My...

Will I be able to receive SD though throughmy normal multiswitch and my HD Tivo until the installer comes out with the Phase III HD Capable dish? Or will I just get no signal? My wife would kill me if I put my HD tivo in before the installer comes and then we get no programming at all for the...

It's my understanding L.A. DMA also gets ABC, FOX, CBS and BC. That is what my neighbor gets and is indicated on D*'s website.

Will this work going through the multiswitch? I was told that when my elliptical HD dish comes the lines will have to run straight to my HD DVR and not through a multiswitch. Currently my dual LNB goes through the multiswitch and then to my SD Tivo.

Gracias Hi Robert- Ordered from you guys about 5minutes ago. Thanks for all the useful information and great pricing. Look forward to receiving my HD Tivo. Lab

Robert - let me ask you this? Were I to buy directly from D*, would they ask for a credit card? Or just apply it to my bill and subtract the credit? I'd love to save money through you and support you as a vendor, but in terms of cash flow, paying less out the door is different than saving money...

Can I use round dish with HD until new one for HD comes? I saw a similar thread somewhere but can't find it amongst the various DBS communities. Please advise. Can I hook up my new HD DVR 250 in place of my SD unit even though I have the standard round dish. Will it work at least for SD...

Sell it to me directly for 349. I dialed up customer retention directly and asked nicely.

I jusT called D* and was given the $250 off, but the CSR told me the $100 MIR is only for SD, but I'd pay no installation (a $49 savings) so almost a wash. Was she misinformed? I thought the $100 MIR was for any DVR including HD.

Wow. I think I have been 8 or 9 years. Sunday ticket every year. I only have two receivers and HBO, so I wouldn't say I am a high $ customer but I am a loyal one. I think I'll call CR and just ask nicely to get $250 off instead of $150. I get mor from verizon wireless just for asking nicely.

The offer I got was $150 immediately off the cost of the HD Tivo STB. Not a credit, an actual price reduction. So actual price would be $449 before MIR instead of just seeing the credit on my next bill. I already have HBO, so I got credits for HBO AND for the HD programming for 6 months...

Is there any harm standing the Hughes DVR on its side? If I upgrade to the HD DVR downstairs I'd like to move my SD Dvr upstairs into a small armoir. I'd need to stand it on its side 9like my D*STB) currently is. Any reason this is bad for the unit? It's okay for PC's so I don't see a reason...

Before the $100 DVR rebate? For a total of $350 off? Any suggestions? Should I just call and say if you make the $150 off to $250 off I'll buy it right now? Appreciate any advice and will certainly return the favor to the forum.

They should give existing subs free install too. My first D* was a few hundred and you had to install it yourself or pay I still have the old RCA in case I ever needed a backup. It served me well. I think Sunday ticket was actually reasonably priced then too. LOL. D* is offering me $150 of...

I have D* and signed up online to get emailed any offers. Got an email today offering free 4 room system PLUS upgrade one room to HD for $299. I plan on waiting to go HD in August, but does this sound like a last minute push at current pricing before the rumored August changes? Forgive me if...

Minimum Advertised Pricining if I recall correctly.

Come 8/1 I predict I'll be in, adding to that my $150 off credit and additional programming credits I got from Customer Retention. Of course I'll need the $49 installation, but it looks like I can get the whole thing under $400 at the end of the day.
