    NFL Sunday Ticket

    They did it last year as well. I didn't have the ticket, but was surprised. They didn't notify everyone like this year though.

    "Moving" technique question??

    It's strange that no locals are available. My in-laws are just north of you (22923) and the Richmond-Petersburg locals are offered in their area. Have you thought about applying for a waiver to get the east coast national feed?

    NFL Red Zone Channel

    I called yesterday and just asked for it straight out and was denied. I called today, said cancel, asked the CSR to verify when my current contract was up (Jan 2011). I told them I was thinking about canceling after my contract was up because ST was too expensive and I really just wanted the...

    I just "moved"

    So, do you think this would work? I am a contractor who will be "working" in LA for the next 3 months. I want to bring one of my receivers with me, but leave 2 for my wife and kids. Is it possible to get the LA locals on one receiver only?

    Cutting back.

    I don't see the need to swap out the HD DVR for a SD one. Just save by cutting out the HD channels.

    I called today to cancel the ST. It just got to be too expensive and I'm currently unemployed. I was offered $20 off the early monthly price, soit would have only been $30 something for 6 months. I asked about SF and was told I could get either the discount OR SF for free but not both. I...

    How much to tip installer?

    I was afraid that $20 wasn't enough. I currently have the slimline on a pole mount. For past installs I've offered to bury the line myself. I currently have the following signal strenght so hopefully peaking isn't necessary. 101 - 96% 110 - 94% 119 - 81% 99a - 83% 103b - 81%

    How much to tip installer?

    In my living room I currently have an H20. I'm having and HR21 installed there so the installer would need to run a 2nd line. I'm also having the H20 relocated to the master bedroom so there would need to have a line run to that location as well.

    How much to tip installer?

    I'm getting an upgrade to a DVR and D* has offered free installation. How much should I tip the installer? I'm not sure how much the installers are paid for an install and I want to make sure that he/she knows how much I appreciate their hard work. Thanks for the input.
