    Looking at Dish couple questions

    Anyone know these two? Thanks to anyone who has replied. 1.) who is the HSP for Florida? I want someone to come out and do a site survey. 2.) what type of promos are available that are not posted on the E* website? I could have gotten the AAA $200 discount and $100 referral discount with D* in...

    Looking at Dish couple questions

    Maybe because Disc HD theater is not a movie channel and its generally included with most basic D* and cable/uverse ect packages? It should be in AT200 and above.

    Nobody knows who the authorized standard installer is for South FL?

    Would this be possible?

    I read all the rules. I don't own the outside of the building. It is a common element. I cannot attach a dish. This will be the last condo I live in! If I was in a townhouse I could mount it outside no matter what the HOA said, because I would own the exterior of the building around my unit.

    Would this be possible?

    The unit is 3 floors. The only place I can put the dish (without fighting the board) is on a second story screened-in balcony. No installs are allowed on outside walls, railings, or any common areas. The only grey area I can find is the A/C condensing unit. I need to get condo docs and determine...

    Would this be possible?

    I would be picking up Miami locals. I took a long walk around the area last night and looked at every balcony. I saw one with a Dish 500 dual LNB and a Dish 500 with a single LNB, both facing different directions. Can Dish 500 get HD? Which satellite are the Miami locals in HD on? If I wanted...

    Would this be possible?

    Who is the official install company like Mastec for D*? I will give them a call and see if they can do a site survey.

    Would this be possible?

    I wanted D*. They came out today and said no-go because eves are blocking satellite signal. I live in South FL and I'm in a condo. I can only install on screened-in balcony. I watched the installer test the slimline dish with a meter and he couldn't get a signal worth using. The eves of the roof...

    Dish without a contract?

    Can you get DHA with the ATT triple play bundle? Does the DHA stand alone plan work like cable? You can cancel at any time and they will take back their receivers?

    DISH Network Ranks No. 1 in Customer Satisfaction

    I just can't understand why they failed to include Voom? I was really counting on seeing them in the ratings, just to see how they compaired to the others.

    Help: Should I or Shouldn't I???

    You may be "getting" all that, But if your receiver requires constant restarting (like many do) or it freezes in the middle of your favorite movie or it take 3 hours to download the programming data then its not going to be there to receive the content. Not to mention, if you ever want to add in...

    Help: Should I or Shouldn't I???

    Don't switch. You are getting into a cable type rental program, where the receiver appears to be free, but you end up paying for it many times over by the time you are done. The DVR 522 is also not even comparable to a DirecTivo. It lacks many-many features and isn't even close to being...

    DVI Cables - Help!

    Soon-to-be E* cust. trying to decide

    before you get tied into a contract just to save a few $'s why don't consider the DirecTV or Voom. If its a DVR you want, I would stay away from Dish Network. a DirecTivo is far better than a 510. not only does it has 2 tuners, it also has names based recordings and much more.

    Dishnetwork HD programming

    I would strech it anyway to fill the screen, so it just helps me out. I don't notice the people being streched anymore, and its saving my HDTV.

    Dish Network Has Tnt Hd!!!!

    he is the mod, he isn't just "some guy". he has the power to close down any thread he wants, and he most likly close or delete this one. He is here to try and stop multiple threads about the same topic, and save room on the server for new stuff that already hasn't been talked about.

    are they going to charge an extra $5/month fee to use the Dish branded Sirius receiver? and act like it is considered an extra receiver beyond the first.

    Team Summit Photos

    they must be having fun working the 811's or 921's in the HDTV truck. showing off all those reboots and system crashes to people interested in their product. "we will be only missing the last 10 minutes or so of the Sopranos tonight, the 921 had to reboot"

    I need to Upgrade.. what to get??

    have you ever compared Dish to DirecTV in your home? since your commitment is up, why not give a real DVR a try from DirecTV? you would be surprised at how much more one can do, and that large hard drive would be no problem, as the DirecTivos are E- Z to upgrade or you can buy one already to...

    Stretch Mode

    its your TV limiting the strech, not the 811. Component inputs are limited to a certain mode for an HD or considered HD signal, which you can't change for the most part.

    Any small Dish company or digital cable company will make you pay at least $4.99/m for programming on each additional receiver. your not paying a rental fee.
