    Is my installer gouging me?

    $40 to 50 per fish is the norm. This guy is just an idiot! Don't sweat it just ask for another installer and it is ok to reschedule it if your not comfortable with the Tech.. R

    Cheap RG/6 supplier

    I've come acrossed some for $25 @1000' BUT THE SHIPPING will get ya. I have been finding better prices on some of the other supplies. So I'm going to keep searching and if anyone wants to barter or swap supplies. Just let me know. Either PM me or e-mail. I love my Job :-)

    Reception thru screen

    signal help

    Freeze framing

    My father has Voom and it keeps freezing(picture keeps breaking) while he holds a consistant 95 signal strength. It started doing this about 2 or 3 days ago. Right after he downloaded the updates but I don't know if that would have anything to do with it. Thanks in advance
