    Anyone with E* in South Carolina

    I have done 1000.2 installs about 4 miles form south of the border and they work just fine with a 1000.2. Most installers from lumberton down columbia only use 61.5 if there is a LOS issue for 129

    211 Running Bug Thread

    My 211 stopped working Wednesday. Ran check switch, checked cables,lnbf and diplexers. All good. 211 would reset download guide and reset again. Called dish and told them what was gong on and without jumping through the normal hoops to get a replacement they sent one out via ups. Maybe it is a...

    DPP Twin/FSS question

    I tried this at a superdish upgrade. Customer already had a D500/w DPP twin. I tried just connecting the FSS lnb to the DDP twin in port, but could not get it to work. Had to end up using a SD with a DPP44SW. Maybe someone else has got it to work.

    Poor quality using 625 for non HD on new Samsung 56" DLP???

    I have installed many SD receivers on HD TV sets and to be honest the picture suffers quite a bit even when the s-video is used. The 211 coax out seems to have improved this problem quite a bit but the image is not that great. That my 2 cents

    Contact the technician now if your interested in the 211!

    Our office ran out of 811's in the first week of January and have been installing 211's since. There are a few things I like about the 211. The coax out put is the best advantage. Some people order HD before they have a HD set and with some older TV sets without RCS's it became a pain. I have...

    new grounding requirements?

    I just do the install the way dish wants it. The QAS, FSM and IM are all happy. I don't put up with all the crap other techs do that take short cuts. The main thing do it thier way stay employed, take short cuts you could be looking for another job. Just my 2 cents

    Dish Network Nightmare

    Hide? You can easily ask the installer what company he/she works for and get the information verified before any work is done. I get that on about 20 percent of all my jobs. Some even call a verify information before I even start. If the installer won't give you the info just say BYE. I read a...

    Dish Network Nightmare

    Regardless of the company who did the install, this is a truly horrid event that took place. Local sat dealers, DNSC or Contractors all have sub standard installers in there ranks. To say that this event would not have happened or the customer would have had a better experience if a local sat...

    Poor Customer Service

    One thing I saw in your statement is that "would not move the furniture". As an installer I stopped moving customers stuff around after getting burned way to many times for stuff that was broken before I even touched it. Yet that should not be an excuse for a poor install. It is up to the...

    How the heck do I install a 721 reciever

    I think the easiest way is a Legacy or DP Quads. Two outputs to feed the 721, 1 output to feed the 508 and 1 left over
