    Antenna grounding

    Mike, at least that sounds fair, installer did the effort to ground the antenna, but believe me, here in PR where I live, I can assure you that 99% of the dish antennas installed by dn an dtv are not grounded. That is why I opened this thread to find out if you had the same problems in...

    Antenna grounding

    hudgreen, is is not the installer's problem if the house has the third wire connected or not. If the installer concerns about it, there is a little gadget that you connect to any electrical outlet that fits inside your pocket and will tell you if the so called third cable is connected or not.

    Antenna grounding

    It is ok if you install your own antennas!! But if you subscribe to DN, the installer install all the equipment and should install the ground also, something they are not doing it. That is what I am talking about!!

    Antenna grounding

    I live in PR and thinking about a DN subscription. Well, I've always seen that all the installers here in PR doesn't ground the antennas at all, not even run a ground cable to the main electrical box chassis, not even a ground block for the coaxial cable as well. I think this is a negative point...

    Alternate audio on SD and HD PPV movie channels

    No one dare to answer this simple question? I am asking because there is no use to even think about getting HD channels if I cannot select spanish as an alternate language on HD channels.
