    Condo/Apartment Cable Lock Box Access

    Also - in most cases that ROE must be filed with the local municipality/county/et al; so it is part of the public record and you don't have to *rely* on the MSO's honesty or the building owners recollection with regards to cable ownership.

    ahh another newb question on alignment

    Would probably get just as accurate results on the signal level meter screen by entering your zip code (menu 6-1-1) Rule one, make sure your mast is plumb and level - no exceptions!. Rule two, set the skew first and leave it. If the mast is level and you set the elevation angle correctly...

    Dish Retailers.........Help!

    Don't know if you will either, without reading the business rules (or having them memorized for the sake of Echo changing them ALL the time) I am sure there is confidentiality attached.

    Dish 322 problem

    Is the TV that is supposed to be TV1 hooked up via RF or composite? If composite, I'd double check the connections, you may have TV1 plugged into TV2's composite jacks.

    Can I bury standard RG6 cable?

    You can bury regular RG6, however the industry recommends against it. UG RG6 is flooded and has a different PVC jacket that resists breakdown and moisture over time. Yes the UG is more expensive and if your situation is for long term, recommended.

    Superdish Installation Advice

    Couldn't tell you the pole diameter for SD ... I'm sure someone else can. As for the depth, depends on your locale. Two foot is usually good for fences, but in MN we have a 44" frost line.

    We have used diplexers many times in similar scenarios, have had no issues at all upon completion.

    More installer humor. (Grounding related)

    It's an all to common problem experienced nationwide. What I find even more troubling is that the installer lied straight to your face and then tried to lay the responsibility back on you for not requesting it.

    New system, 322 vs. 301

    322's have been buggy, can't rush the setup and downloads. Even then, we have seen a 1 in 7 failure rate. We dislike them and try to steer the customer away from them. Also, cable routing can be a consideration. You need two cables from the dish to each 322, and either diplex TV2 output back to...
