    Dish HD Enabling fee question

    I do not have HD locals available here and I am looking at Dishing it up to a 622 (want a dual tuner PVR) though I do not necessarily want Dish's HD packs. Normally if you have HD IRDs and do NOT have the HD programming, Dish charges the HD enabling fee to utilize the OTA HD EPG. What if...

    Bev CSRs - gotta follow their scripts LOL

    Called June 18 to activate a "new" IRD on my account. Got a CSR inside of two minutes on a Sunday! Thought there would be a catch for getting service. She proceeded to do the activation, BUT she noticed that I had a "pre-legacy" package. She then proceeded to tell me she would convert me...

    Denver locals - which sat?

    I am looking at getting the locals. I currently have a dish 500 pointed at 110/119 and a second dish at 129. What bird(s) do the Denver locals sit on? I believe most are spot beamed as well and I think I am on the very fringe. Too close to Denver to get distant locals and too far for the...
