    DISH installation - removal of D* dish

    My installation is scheduled for this Wednesday. When placing my order, the representative I was working with assured me that the installer would be able to remove my D* dish from the roof because I could not tolerate having 2 dishes on the roof. I asked him several times, as this was a deal...

    broadband caps

    I read that Comcast has instituted a 250 GB monthly cap. I am not sure about other providers. I once calculated that 3 hours of daily sky angel uses 36 GB per month of bandwidth. I based this off of 900 kbps stream rate of Sky Angel. I converted bits to bytes and multiplied by 30 days. I...

    What would it take for SA to offer local channels?

    RJC, what speed is your Internet connection? Sky Angel says you need a minimum of 1.5 mbps, but in real life experience.....if you plan to be using the computer at the same time as watching TV (especially with multiple computers in the house) I suggest you go with a 3.0 mbps connection or...

    Canceled my Sky Angel IPTV service

    JH, I tried to be as respectful as possible with them. I understand there are consequences to canceling services with contracts to them. It's also been my experience that ETF's can be waived. Back in 2002 when I lost my job, 2 ETF's were waived by Verizon Wireless for me. In addition to...

    Broadband Usage Caps

    Sky Angel not going to get to HD quality, let alone 1080p anytime soon. To the best of my knowledge 1080p is not a broadcast standard, its only being used by the two satellite companies, DTV and Dish for OnDemand. It's also used in blu-ray DVD and Playstation 3. I would be surprised if Sky...

    2 SkyAngel IPTV Boxes

    It seems like SA still doesn't have a mirroring program like DirecTV or Dish, for an extra $5 per month. It looks like right now, it would be an extra $14.95 or $24.95 or $19.95 per month, depending on your plan.
