    DIRT support team?

    Is the DIRT support team still a thing? If so, how do I find a DIRT team member? If not, what is the best way to "chat" with someone at Dish? I can not change/update my programming on the mydish dot com site & keep getting a message to call the 1-800 number & I refuse to do so. Thanks in...

    Any DIRT team members online now?

    I did, when I started the thread there were non listed in the "Helpers online now section", & often I find that when none are listed it is because they are not logged on & I start a thread like this & bingo all the sudden there are two.

    Complete signal loss on transponder 10 ?

    I have 4 receivers in 4 different rooms, 3 are 211k's & 1 is a 211z, all run thru a DPP44 switch. The 211z has "complete signal loss" on every channel that uses transponder 10. I have swapped receivers around from room to room and the problem seems to follow the receiver. Am I safe to assume...

    Cheapest way to get Dish installed with no contract?

    I agree. If some cheap bastard call's me and ask's "how much to change a head gasket?" I always give them a range - i.e. $500.00 thru $700.00. BECAUSE I HAVE NOT LOOKED AT IT. My "labor guide" does not account for broken bolt's, and other incidental's, I EAT those. If I was so inept, that I...

    Touche gentleman, The OP asked, what is the CHEAPEST way to get an install without A CONTRACT. I answered him by saying "do it yourself". If a customer came into my shop and asked me "What is the cheapest way to change my head...

    Cheapest way to get Dish installed with no contract?

    Except he own's everything, and if you live in the lower 48 (like most do) there is no shipping $. If he opted for the $200.00 install, he would own nothing, not to mention that what I say is worth $100.00 / $125.00, he says is worth $15.00 / $20.00 (to him) . Our time is worth something, but...

    Cheapest way to get Dish installed with no contract?

    I am a blue collar working stiff (ASE certified Auto tech), and would not feel right charging $200.00 for what he is describing below. $100.00 / $125.00 maybe, I would be providing, maybe 35 feet of coax, a few wall clips, some silicon sealer, and my knowledge. Have you seen one of these...

    Cheapest way to get Dish installed with no contract?

    Do you have any friends with Dish? If so would they be willing to loan you there receiver for an afternoon, or while there at work? If so, chuck a piece of coax out the window down to the dish and see what your signal strength is, may not even need "peeked". All you would be out is the cost of...

    Any HD receivers with interactive and No DVR?

    Not sure what the EPG is. The guide works fine. I live in a very remote Alaskan "village" with a population of 10. The set up we use is very unique - 5 households share 1 - 6 foot dish for 110 and 119, and another 6 foot dish for 129. A total of 8 receivers on 5 separate accounts. 2 of the...

    New Year, new local dispute

    Now my local FOX (KTBY Anchorage) is in a dispute with Dish, when I called the General manager in Anchorage to complain, he informed me that ABC (KYUR Anchorage) will go "black" at midnight Friday. I am so sick of this BS. Iceberg, maybe you could start a thread with the details for us Alaska...
