This same thing happened to me when I cancelled my Dish account years ago. I had a owned 510 and a leased 522. When I called to cancel they told me I had to send back both because they were both leased. I told them I had my original contract for the 510 (I installed Dish and had done my own...

I am also surprised they would install the dish's in trees... although I have done it myself once or twice. You have probably already found the problem, when you said the problem got worse at the trees filled out. If I had to guess, you are now shooting into the leaves and that is causing your...

These will last for a long time, and they are flexible, so they don't break like the rigid ones do Eagle Flex Cable Grip Clips 100 Pack Black RG6 RG59 Coax 1/2" RG-6 RG-59 Single Digital Video Satellite TV Antenna Coaxial Data Screw In Clips Fasteners Straps Holders, Wire Grip Clamp: Oak...

Welcome Installers!

Did you switch the input on the tv to Video 1? Normally you will have have a button on the remote that says "Input" or "AV" or something like that. What model receiver are you using?

run away as fast as you can.... this job is getting worse on a daily basis

This is the dumbest idea I've heard lately... and if I lived in Omaha I would be a very vocal citizen. To me it sounds like this guy is a fan of cable, or got a nice check from Cox. I feel bad for the apartment satellite customers... cause most of those installs aren't grounded, and a tripod...

you have a dish 1000+ btw not a dish 500 if you are getting 119, 118, 110, and 129. You need to take a line from each lnb into a DPP44 Switch. What switch are you using?

I would call and have them send another guy out for a second opinion. You can also go to Satellite Finder / Dish Pointing Calculator with Google Maps | DishPointer.com, enter your address, and see where the los is and if the tree is in fact in the way

my shop charges $2/ foot

Your proposed method would loose so many sales. I would say about half of the installs I do, the customer does not have a land-line phone. And about a quarter doesn't have a broadband connection that could be used. I did 4 installs today, 3 of which did not have land line phone, and one of...

Nope

I throw them in for free... but a lot of guys in my office don't. They will offer to run the second line if needed, but they charge for the diplexers if you don't want the extra hole and wire run.

Nope, its on by default when you reboot the box

and 95 on Directv for international. I put in a ton of those horrible dishes

Just so you are aware... this forum is not just for us installers. There is a separate forum for that http://www.satelliteguys.us/installer-zone/. In fact, we are probably out-numbered here by customers, hobbyist, possible customers, ect. You keep bringing up that people that aren't...

He probably has a little HD monitor that doesn't have a built in tuner in it. I am running into those more and more and it does make it a pain for tv2

It doesn't... it just helps him avoid getting the charge right away... eventually he will have to pay for it, and deal with it hurting his credit

Of course they charge you if you bail on the commitment early. You signed a legal contract, it is enforceable

yeah, that is odd that they couldnt get the 110. If there are getting the 119 and 118 decent the 110 should just be there. I would bet the problem is something else

So wait... do you already have an ethernet cable ran to the tv location for one of your other devices? If so, just put a switch in. And as far as attics go, in the summer... i don't do attics unless it is absolutely necessary, and it is only a few minutes at a time.

Up until a few days ago, we used a wing dish for the 129 because of the crappy signal strength on a multi-sat. Now that Ciel 2 is up... Dish has changed the business rules, and we are now installing the 1000.2 :) And yeah, I install in the Seattle market. I just did a 1000.2 yesterday in...

ok, I know I am a little late to this party... but here is my take. I think it has been decided you have a Dish 300 system. (Does the lnb you have now, look like 1 eye, or 2 sitting side by side?) Probably just 1. If that is the case then you need to return the DP lnb you have, cause as...

of go to your local best buy or radio shack and get a powerline ethernet set up... because no, its not included... and most of us don't carry the wire to do it anyway.
