    i have not got the call yet.. I get both sd and hd distants via a waiver from all four local networks.. I'm leaving the area in a couple of months so not a big deal to me anyway..

    As long as they are available and the dish is properly aimed, you should have no problem.

    new h21

    actually a number of people have reported buying one at bestbuy. It is basicly an H20 without the OTA receiver. Early reviews report it is fairly stable and runs a lot cooler then the h20. I suspect it is too new to find one you can buy vs the lease from D*

    H20 Problems

    Just curious as to why you need a protection plan for a receiver you don't even own. I call D* and they just send me a refurb unit for shipping cost..

    Do you really need the phone line

    I disconnected the phone line on one of my receivers and a few months later, I was unable to order PPV on that receiver.. No problem if you do not order PPV. Should you decide you do want a PPV, you can do it on line and it will show on all receivers on your account..

    i put two braces between the pole and the block wall and dug out around the base and added another sack of concrete.. this pole ain't going anywhere. Now I just need the HD the thing was put in for..

    H20-600 / Sep. 14 & 15 / {CE:08:03} - 0x2038

    download went fine for me.. I don't really notice any difference from last weeks.. Now that it has one button guide, I'm not sure what other improvements they could make that would interest me..

    Upcoming slimline install

    Not sure why you think that.. It was done exactly as the installer wanted to do it.. My only input was to suggest a location which he said was fine and I buried the line myself (in conduit all the way into the house). From your previous post's I would think you would approve of that..

    Upcoming slimline install

    10-4 to that, but the area i had him put the pole is normal dirt.. It is a raised planting area i built for my wife, and I know it's dirt because i wheeled it all back from the street and shoveled it in..

    Upcoming slimline install

    The apt for my install was last sat.. they were scheduled between 8 and noon.. around 12:30 I had not heard from them, so I left a note on the door and we left to run some errands.. We got back around 2 and the note was still there.. Around 2:30 he called to say he was on his way over.. When he...

    Upcoming slimline install

    I would certainly agree that installers need to protect themselfs and I would hope they agree that homeowners have the same right.. when my installer comes, we will discuss what needs to be done and if we not in agreement, the install will not be done..

    Upcoming slimline install

    I was not aware of that and D* did not mention it.. I have no problem paying for it if it meets my needs..

    Upcoming slimline install

    I reread my message and don't see anything about asking for anything to be done for free.. I got a call from D* asking me to call in and setup a "FREE" installation of a new dish. I assumed this meant they would send somebody out to bolt a new dish to the side/back of the house, conect the two...

    Upcoming slimline install

    sounds like D* should be advising consumers what the "standard installation" includes.. Is the S mount that much different then the 4 bolt wall mount the dish comes with ?? It did not look like it to me, but I don't have the experience you do. My hope was that D* would just send me the S mount...

    Upcoming slimline install

    I am scheduled to get a slimline dish installed on 9/8.. My current 3 lnb dish is installed on the side of my house on a wall mounted pole.. They will not be able to use this since the mounts will not accept a 2" pole. They should be able to use a normal wall mount with monopoles on the back of...

    Are you Ready for Directv's new HD Channels in September?

    That may be, and if that is the case, I will just buy the dish on line.. It is worth it to me in order to have it done the way I want it..
