One year ago this month I fired Comcast and went with DirecTV, purchased a three room, triple LNB RCA dish/receiver rig from Best Buy because I didn't know any better and set up an appointment with a local installer. When the guy finally came he hemmed and hawed about the tree line, my...

Okay, so I'm coming up on my first full year of having Direct and naturally they have sent out an incentive offer in the interest of keeping me for yet another year. Not that they really need to do anything to keep me on as we've been more than happy with the service and have no intentions of...

Okay, a couple of things that may have been answered before, but I haven't seen a direct answer to a lot of them so I figure it doesn't hurt to ask here. 1. PPV - Currently we do not have any phone lines hooked up to any of our three receivers because of the inconvenience of where the phone...

Okay, so in addition to the tailgating threads I thought I might ask for a quick internet feasability study of my own regarding setting up a portable DirecTV for when one isn't at the home base. My parents (who get Dish currently, DirectWay internet ironically) live out in West Virginia and...

Okay, so I bought a three receiver RCA dish/triple LNB combo from best buy back in July, and one of the receivers is beginning to act up. (Yes I know now that most 'connesiours' of DBS would say "Don't buy RCA receivers", but I just wanted to get something up and running reasonably cheaply.)...

Okay, so I broke down and got ESPN Game Plan with the hopes of seeing my fav Pac-10 team play when I otherwise wouldn't (I won't say which...wait you'll figure it out anyway when I pose my question...oh well ;) ) Anyway, the game is USC vs BYU and the only place it's listed is on 210 which is...

Looks like at least around here the people are really saying 'to heck with cable'. The guy who lives in the apartment below mine apparently saw my dish up for the past three weeks and determined that if I could get DirecTV, so could he. My wife informed me today that he was getting a dish...
