Huh? I don't know where you guys get your answers? UL listed simply means that the item has been tested by the Underwriters Labatory to meet or exceed the requirements for that particular item. If it does not have the UL stamp, it just means they've never tested it or if they did it failed to...

I already posted on Dishretailer.com, but I'm curious of the pro's and cons of selling and installing FTA systems. I have no interest in helping people steal a signal that others are paying for, but after attending the expo, I'm curious why this is getting so big and if it's a decent revenue...

On the 811 reciever. Press Menu 6/1/3 for system information. You should see remote address on bottom of the screen. On the remote for receiver, press and hold satellite button until all lights come on, then let go of satellite button. It should now be blinking. Press 13#, wait for light to...

Obviously you must be an internal tech. I do believe I said they are scheduling to keep Internal techs busy. It's easier on them to keep Sub's on hold, or feed them a little work to survive then it would be to fill up the schedule each day, risking a chance at sending internal techs home, yet...

It's a Known Issue with all the new HD receivers, and with more then just FOX HD.

I have a Phillips TV. I noticed what I consider a Huge difference when I connected HDMI to my 411 receiver, and also tested it on my DVD player. Everything looked much clearer and more defined with the HDMI cable connected. To bad I just had to RA my 411 because the HDMI quit operating and...

Only difference I've seen is the Ethernet port. Everything else is the same between the 211 and the 411.

Yeah, as slow as it is with DNS, no reason they are scheduling that far out. Seems they are scheduling way out in order to keep internal techs busy. We have been doing same day installs for Retail customers. I just don't keep 622's in stock, but I can have them next day. Echosphere seems to...

Punching in your zip on my box says you should be pointing at 151 (azimuth), elevation should be 45 and skew 80. Don't change the skew or elevation. Also, don't use the 21 switch if you are using a Twin LNBF. I assume you are pointing with the point dish screen and not a meter. With the mast...

I'd have to agree with the above poster. It's very likely you have 119 pointed at 110 and therefore not getting 119. Try moving the dish. If you look at the point dish screen and set the zip code, you can set the elevation on the dish and not change it. Make sure your mast is Plumb and level...

I am already registered and will be down there all 4 days. I probably won't attend the Direct Tv Kick off, but I'll be there for everything else. I'd love to meet up with some of the Satellite Guys members. I'm really looking forward to the Expo.

Unless you need it for dual tuner mode why not just put it in Single Tuner mode? Phone line fee is not required when in Single mode. Also, single tuner mode lets you record one channel and watch another, unlike the Dual mode. If the phone line is connected though, the auditing team...

Yea. DPP 44 switches are in High Demand. According to my echosphere sales rep, they are out across the country. I tried to get some Drop shipped to me today and was unsuccessful. Really wish they'd just come up with an adapter to work with the DP34. Can't be that difficult to set up a...

The installation manual states trenching is included up to 50'. Obviously, if a trench can't be done, or if it's beyond normal trenching, I don't think this would be included. However, Unless it's pure rock, I am sure the cable can be buried enough to protect it from the mower and not be a...

Unless proven otherwise, we are the highest paying company for subcontractors. I've yet to see a paysheet that contradicts this. Furthermore, we actually pay "trip charges" for excess mileage. Tech gets additional 20.00 to compensate the cost of fuel. Also, NLOS and customer not home we pay...

Not quite so simple to "stick" it to E*. Even in this case, they will probably attempt to charge you the 199.00 for the cost of the switch. Really depends on which CSR you get. Either way, the above is true of DNS Subs. Dish will NOT pay for DPP 44 switches unless it is for 4 satellite...

Atlanta Locals are currently all on 119/110 except for 2 channels. 61.5 does have those 2 channels. Atlanta hasn't yet been named a Dish 1000 market. We only install D1000 for HD customers. If you'd like, PM me and I'll do what I can to help you with Dish 1000. I have installed some...

Yes. I'm being told by DNS internal that next month E-10 will be in place and Atlanta Locals and Chattanooga locals will all be on 110. Chattanooga Locals are currently on 105 transponder 1. I believe in retailer chat they announced this as well.

You could just activate the receiver and then RA it through the normal DNS process. They do set up DHPP for this promo as we just ran on a TC from this promo today. Once you activate it you will then be asigned an account number and tech support can then help you. Just an idea. :eek...

I'm sure many will disagree with me, but at my company a Free Professional installation includes up to 200' of cable/receiver. Pole Mount with trenching up to 50'. 1 Outside penetration / receiver which some interpret as a Wall plate, others say this is into the crawl space. We prefer to use...

In both cases you need a DP lnbf. For 1 satellite, the Dish 300, DP dual, and for the 2 satellite set up, you need a DP twin or 2 DP duals. If you are using a DPP 44 switch, why not point at all 3 of them? There is 4 Satellite in Ports on the 44 switch. I do agree you will 2 switches...

I wouldn't advise this, but if you do, make sure it's all RG 6 cable, as well as High Frequency barrel connectors in the wall plates. My advice would be to request the installer install new cable. Most installation problems occur because a tech used Prewired cable because he was too lazy...

Yes. Dish 1000 should have a DPP twin, and a DP dual on it. You'll notice the left LNB(as you stand behind the dish) is actually 2 LNB's in one. if you pull it off you'll see a spare port. You can connect to this.

You cannot split a satellite signal that goes to multiple satellite locations, ie dish 500, d1000, Superdish. A dish 300 can be split, but it's advised not to. If you want to add another receiver, the smart thing to do is run a seperate cable from your LNB to the new receiver. I assume since...

The Seperator included in the box for the 322 is designed to work with Dish Pro Plus equipment only. It allows you to run one cable from the switch or lnb and then seperate (or split which is kind of what it does) to the 2 inputs on the back of the reciever. A diplexor is actually what allows...
