    Additional MPEG4 / Detroit Info

    My HD locals are back up and running again. It turns out that the original install tech didn't tighten up the screws on the "side" lnbs beyond finger tight. (reference my earlier posts on the installers ineptitude) We are once again having 40 MPH winds and everything is working good (knock...

    Additional MPEG4 / Detroit Info

    Doctor Bob, Sorry, my system specifics were in another thread. I have the new H20 HD receiver with the new 5 lnb dish. I live in the Detroit area, so I'm part of the beta test. Originally I got the MPEG4 hd locals perfectly, but as of now they are all off. Every other channel works, so...

    Additional MPEG4 / Detroit Info

    Well, all of my HD locals are gone now. I had trouble with Fox 2 all day last Sunday, and the other HD's were coming in and out. I figured it was due to the wind since we were having 50 and 60 MPH gusts. Everything was back to normal on Monday night, but I just returned home from being...

    Additional MPEG4 / Detroit Info

    Nope, but I can guarantee if installing Directv was how I earned a living I would at least know how to do it before hitting the field. From where my dish was installed you can see the back of four other homes with a Directv dish. I had to point out to the installer that the other dishes were...

    Additional MPEG4 / Detroit Info

    I'm sorry to hear about your problems getting set up Satjay. It is unfortunate that the only game in town is Michigan Microtech, it certainly appears that they know they are the only choice. I had my install through Michigan Microtech last Saturday, I wasn't at all impressed with the...

    DirecTV MPEG4 Rollout to begin

    My system was setup yesterday, everything is working for me, I'm watching the Lions vs Chicago right now on the local Fox 2 HD feed. I'm connected HDMI to a DVI adapter and the picture is awesome, no pixelating or glitches at all. It has been a few months since I had Comcast HD, but the...

    SatelliteGuys MPEG4 Contest!

    Well Rubinl, I hope you don't take offense to this, but why (and how) did you already get the new dish if you don't have the H20 reciever? I was scheduled for the new dish install last Saturday, but the appointment was cancelled because they ran out of the new dish, and I already have the H20...

    Well Proc, I guess I'm not the only one. I called Directv to see if they used any other installers in SE MI, but Michigan Microtech is the only one. Let us know if you get postponed again.

    Detroit MPEG4 HD Now Online!

    Well, surprise surprise. I just received a call from the 3rd party company that was scheduled to do the install tomorrow cancelling because they are out of the new 5 lnb dishes. They claim they will be receiving a "truckload" of them on Tuesday, so I rescheduled for a week from tomorrow...

    Hey guys, I just joined to give you this info. I purchased the H20 receiver at Best buy tonight, and when I checked out, there was the $200 rebate form that I expected. There was also a $50 off instant rebate, and installation was only $21.15, so I will actually make about $30 on the deal...
