well, i LEFT sbcdsl for verizon dsl when i moved mainly because the sbc geniuses wanted upwards to $400 to allow me to continue my service at the new house and verizon set me up for pennies on the dollar($19.95 if memory serves me right)...this one was a no brainer...as for sat, I'm STILL with...

i have a feeling this is viewed as a horizontal move for him(i suspect that ANY CEO of podunk probably still makes more money than a VP at echostar and this allows one of charlie's boys to run the joint...)

the multi switch is just not going to do the trick for you-get a legacy 64 switch at the dishes for all the receivers and you have solved your problem. You won't need 21 switches or anything else...

to be honest, carl vogal is the "adam baldwin/ted mcginley" of the communications industry-when he shows up, whatever he is involved with is either about to get sold or closed down-now, i don't expect to see the doors to E* closed anytime soon, but a buyout of some kind wouldn't surprise me at...

word of advice-DON'T be bullied by E* CSRs over the second dish-IF there is NON-VOOM programming that is available to you on your subscription(locals, CBSHD)that you can ONLY get thru the installation of the second dish, E* is required BY LAW to provide this second dish to you AT NO CHARGE!!!It...

not a dumb question at all-the answer is easy tho-if you can't get your locals on a dish 500, then it's likely they are on 61.5, obviously... seeing you are in the dallas area, all your locals save one niche UHF channel(i forget which one)are on 110....

Got to meet with Claude and Scott for lunch today-i do feel the need to publically apologize for taking y'all to perhaps the crappiest BBQ joint, tho from a quick look-see, it was the only one within miles of Gaylord, and in that run down loaner from my mechanic to boot-whilst driving home, i...
