My two years was up and I canceled. They sent the box to return the receivers. I packed up the power cords, remotes, and the receivers. I noticed it said to also return all accessories. (like the B band adapters). I was given B band adapters when I first got installed but my dish got damaged in...

I'm debating my options. My 24 month commitment just ran out. I have been using my HR21's with only one input since my rooms have one coax. I don't have HD right now because a couple months after I got service we had a tornado and it took the dish so I hooked up an old 3 lnb dish and that's what...

I moved a while back and I'm just now setting up my FTA system today. I setup the dish and made sure everything is right and I'm aiming it now. I haven't had the system running for a year or so. I have a Fortecstar Lifetime NA receiver. I found my truesouth satellite Galaxy 19 (97w) (it was IA5...

Well my choices are limited since I live in the country. Either Directv or Dish Network. I wont go with Dish because they ticked me off so bad in the past. Directv is starting to nickle and dime me to death. I lost my sat in a storm and really don't want to pay to have someone come out to give...

We had a tornado today. missed our house but we got some wind damage and one item that was lost was our directv dish. The dish is pretty twisted so it can't hold a signal. Will directv replace this for free or do I have to pay a large fee for them to come out? If that is the case I might just...

I have a couple local stations making the switch tonight. It just dawned on me and almost confused me a little about whats actually going on here. All the stations that are broadcasting lets say on a channel like 22 will be moving down to their normal channel....so will everything be UHF or VHF...

ok I have been around FTA for a while, setup my system and all that fun stuff with a KU band. However, I have a couple questions. We moved into an area with great OTA reception so I want to ditch Directv finally however my son can't live with out Noggin so I want to pick up a package from some...

I plan on calling and signing up in a couple mins... does anyone have a refferral code they can pm me? thanks!

Saw this from the local station in Lincoln, NE. Looks to be some legal situation or some type of pissing match. ;) Home KLKNTV.com Lincoln for local Nebraska News, Weather, Sports and More... has a section on the website.

I am building a new house. It's in the stick phase so it will be soon time to start stringing miles of cable for internet and tv. I ran across some mini coax while looking at one of my places I get wire. You can get three or 5 wire in one and thought this would be great since I plan on pulling a...

ok here's the short story. We have had dish for 16 months ( 2 months left in contract). We love it but we just sold our house because we are building a new one. So the new house is not done yet so we had to find an apartment real quick. It doesn't have a view of the southern sky which sucks but...

I thought I would pass on this amusing article about how TWC is so cheap that it decided to take on building their own software instead of paying for the Passport software loaded on most equipment. TWC has used the Lincoln, NE as the test market before it rolls this out to the rest of the...

Well just got installed. I had a really good installer. However, it was still quite a long install. I pre-ran all the wires and the backfeed wires for the 622 and 322 so the installer had a smile when he came in. My appointment was 12-5 and he came at 12:08! I couldn't believe it!! Got the 322...

quick question on the 622. I know that tv2 uses the uhf remote so it can be used in another room. can the main tv1 remote be used in a uhf mode? I have a home projector screen that drops down out of the ceiling and it covers the IR eye's so only uhf will work when I'm using it. would I have to...

Will a direct tv (3 lnb sat) mast work on a dish 1000 or will they replace the mast? I was hoping they could just take the dish off and swap it with a E* dish.

Well I finally made the switch from D*. Hate to leave since it worked great. Last time I had Dish it I had tons of problems but I have a family member who installs for dish so I'm thinking I can get "free" support this time. ;) I signed up online thinking I would bypass the check to see if I...

I'm planning on getting dish but wanted to make sure I have all the coax to each tv I need. I have most of it installed when I built the house and it's wired in a central location. It always scares the installers so I wanted to make sure I know the technical aspects of the current dish network...

I was flipping through on my SD box and I saw channel 1000. It said something about welcome to directv plus or something like that. It looks like it shows the same content over and over in a 15 min window. It said I didn't subscribe so I couldn't view the content. Any one know what this is? It...

Will voom ever come to directv? If you go to voom.com there is a place to contact if you would like to carry the voom channels. this got me thinking. is it just capacity problems? or is directv scared of hd? ;)

I want to get a two room hd dvr system and a sd dvr system for two rooms (4 total). I noticed there's a lot of dvr fee's. If I subscribe to the HD Plat. package are the dvr fee's waived? I do the dish configure utility on the website and it still show's the dvr fee's.

I'm curious if anyone got dish through Windstream www.windstream.com ( formally Alltel) with a bundle of internet, phone, and tv? I am wondering how it compares to going directly with dish? I hated alltel but I might consider signing up for internet through windstream and getting tv in a bundle.

The lack of HD content on Directv and the fact that I hate tivo dvr's I'm thinking of going back to Dish. (i'm probally the only one that hates tivo boxes but the guide really pisses me off. It just seems cheap. The blue\white colors are hard to read in my old age.) I have a couple questions...

My father in law in Iowa was looking at getting a Star Choice system. Since it's a Canadian service can he legally subscribe? I would probally install it for him. thanks for any info!

For some reason I got an email about being a valued customer and that I can get free showtime for 6 months. After the 6 months it will drop off my account and I won't be automatically billed (or so they say). Any one else get this? I tried it and it works...

Man I'm hooked on this hobby! after finally getting a signal and being able to tune in all the sats. it's so amazing what you can get for free. Well probally not free after the cost of the dish and all the upgrades I want to do. :) o well gota have something fun to do. I have a single LNB...I...
