    Is satellite installer jobs going to hell

    JPJ, Sorry to hear about your ordeal. My suggestion since you got the skills, become your own subcontractor. Another area you may want to check is SOLAR PANELS installation certification. Become a certified installer and you will get several opportunities in your state.

    Installers made a huge deal about everything so I sent them packing ... now what?

    My general advice to customers, is PLEASE let the installers do their jobs that they are trained to do. The most annoying thing for an installer is when a home owner is standing watching over the installer's shoulder and telling the installer what he should or can't do. The installer is a...

    Is 119 failing?

    You may have something wrong with your receiver. 119 is fine. If it failed, it would make the national news.

    Ohio News Network

    Yep, thanks Iceberg for confirming. They changed the satellite name or swapped satellite locations. According to Lyngsat, it is the only full-time channel on that satellite besides feeds (and lots of them): http://www.lyngsat.com/horizons2.html

    ONN used to be on SBS6 FTA for years. Not sure if it is still there now.

    Dish Network FlexTV Questions..

    It won't work because you have to order FLEXTV service from a retailer. The retailer will have to send you a fresh receiver from their inventory. The receiver is tied up to the retailer account and that is how he will get paid for his sales commission. The $149 will cover SD receiver, Dish...

    Dish Network Prepaid Question

    Zachstar, The 2nd best thing is FLEXTV for you. No daily order though. Only month to month. But you get more programming options. Extra receivers for the house are only $5 per month. So there are some advantages. I am just saying! :)

    Dish LNB

    Since you only need to point it at 61.5, just use a single DSS LNBF, not a twin. See photo here how to attach the DSS LNBF

    dish vip 722 hd reciver

    HI John, I just saw your post here. The DishPro Plus Twin assembly will fit fine on the Dish 500 old yoke. The only difference between the DP and the DP+ is that the DP+ can be used with one cable to a DVR or dual tuner receiver. You will only need to use the separator that comes with the...

    Dish Network Prepaid Question

    If Dish Network would allow FlexTV customers to use their GDMP to buy programming by the day (as DishNow used to be), FlexTV would be a hot choice for many customers.

    Dish no longer BBB Member

    That was uncalled for. Some of the best customers are the 60+ crowd. Also, the last 10 years, most of my 60+ relatives and friends have been very active with the internet, and new technology.

    moving dish from 2nd floor to ground

    The alignment will also depend on the pole angle. If you set it up again with exactly the same pole angle as you had it before (which I doubt), then you will be fine. Otherwise, once you secure the pole (tripod) on the ground and set it plump, then place the dish on the mast. Start with...

    Sadoun signal meter dead on arrival

    I think you are mistaken, sir. We have been selling this meter for over 6 years, and very satisfied with it including the 100s of users out there. We are not getting rid of it, by all means. I am surprised at your accusation. If you have an issue with your meter, send it back. We will...

    Dish Network Prepaid Question

    Hi mikil321 Sorry for not clarifying. I am a Dish Network dealer. I was referring to a customer who I helped with the FlexTV offer. I can do that now through the retailer website where I enter customer's information to create a shill account. Social Security number is not needed. DN...

    Dish Network Prepaid Question

    Hi Steelersrule, Thanks for your kind comments about my contribution to this forum. As far as "Cheaper Overall", I might have jumped to this conclusion too fast without clarifying or analyzing it further. I was thinking of the ability to have the 322 receiver (no extra cost) on the FlexTV...

    35-DN34 switch install problems

    Hi, I just saw your thread here. Could you explain again what exactly you are trying to accomplish? I am confused a little on what your end goal is for your setup. Since you have a motorized FTA dish, only one FTA receiver will be able to control the motor. I haven't tried a 35-DN34 switch...

    Dish Network Prepaid Question

    I signed up a DishNow prepaid customer on FlexTV yesterday. The process to sign up was smooth and straight forward. I learned one of the differences between the FlexTV and the regular DHA-24 is that FlexTV customer will not get the promotions available at the time to DHA customers (i.e. $9.99...

    Dish Network Prepaid Question

    Vector I agree with your sentiments about PPD and how good it has been for so many people. This offer took a while to become popular. I don't think DN should pull the rug from under its feet while it is up and running like a champ. If you feel an email campaign would help, by all means. I...
