    Installing SuperDish for Neighbor

    i don't recommend use of superdish...it's large and requires a more invasive mounting...it was only used as a bridge to getting more dbs bandwidth for locals...a 500 dish and clear-to-use receiver may be found cheap on ebay, and yes, you will probably do a better installation that dish would...

    i'm sorry, but you were ripped off...your system setup should have included a full explanation of mode and recording/tuner settings

    n00b with some issues/questions

    this only goes to show how woefully deficient echostar is in effecting customer satisfaction...they have forced local dealerships out of business by steering customers to their in-house installation system, staffed by underexperienced people with no stake in customer satisfaction...i'm gald...

    522 How can I change tv 1 from IR to RF?

    the 522/625 is designed to allow optional RF control of TV1 in addition to standard RF control of TV2...however, you will need to obtain an additional RF remote (model 6.0 or 6.2), as the standard provided 5.0 TV1 remote is IR-only....ideally you will have one with a '1 UHF' green-colored base...

    What did Charlie Say?

    for those of us who didn't get the audio to work, could we get a transcription or synopsis of what 'charlie said'? or do we already essentially have it- 2 launches this year, to the same slot, to totally 're-launch' DiSH service in 100% mp4 from a single slot dish....? and that's it; no mention...

    Charlie then talks about broadband and talks about Wildblue, Dish DSL and also announ

    dish dsl is essentially a referral service through echostar to the incumbent telco operator...if you don't have dsl service generally available at your locale, dish dsl will also not be available... wildblue is showing good promise...it is a purpose-built ka-band internet access service, and...

    best offer to become a Dish customer

    the 'digital home advantage' offer may be done with or without the 18 month commitment...by taking the commitment, you receive their 'digital home protection plan' (dhpp) at no charge during the commitment period, after which they make it a $6 add-on to your bill each month... as the leased...

    2 questions about dish

    as they take new subs essentially at no cost and with no commitment, there's no downside to starting e* service....if in a couple months the service changes unacceptably, you can just cut it loose... you can probably still get the chicago hd locals signal where you're going....you don't have...

    Returning E* equipment - they want LNBF?

    i also question why they are after antenna system parts from disco's, while they leave movers' old systems intact....their logic with movers is that a new move-in may elect to start service with a dish already in place to facilitate it.....wouldn't a disco customer also possibly restart service...
