    Blue Sky Satellite Installers for Dish Network - Watch out!!

    The installer should have explained that what was being asked could not be done and worked with you to come up with an alternative plan. That being said, with your experience (and you should have known that your wishes are not included in the "free" install) why didn't you do the cable run...
