    So good so far

    My 2/H 2/J install was 3/24. As of now I haven't experienced any problems at all, and am extremely happy with the system. I signed up for the upgrade on the first day, and was really excited.

    Question for installers

    Would it be acceptable to offer an installer any kind of help? I've printed a lot of install tips from this forum concerning the H/J set up. By no means am I implying that I know more than you guys do. But after reading some of the problems many folks have had with their installs, I would like...

    Gave up on D

    E installed yesterday and life is good at the crib. Last year during the Fox dispute I switched to D. Man what a mistake that was. I know some will say I told you so and they were right.

    What DTV just told me

    I just got off the phone with DTV. Was asking about prices and packages. The guy told me that Nov. 1 Dish will be forced to turn off the DVR functions in our recievers. Is this a marketing ploy to get subs... or is he not informed or lying? I'm not ready to jump ship, but if this happens I'm...

    Tipping Installers

    What would be an appropriate amount to tip an installer? My 722 was installed today. It was a simple reciever swap out, that took about 45 minutes. I gave the guy twenty dollars, and he seemed surprised that I offered him anything. Was that enough?
