    Network East & West Feeds

    I can get locals here but I qualify for 2 distant networks. I wonder if I can get one because pic quality is sh*t on the "local" channel. So for 1.50 I wonder if they would add it since I qualify. With bowl season coming up I shouldn't have to watch a channel where you can't tell the score of...

    DirecTv CSR's are just dumb.

    Does D* still offer paperless billing?

    I got my first bill and that was it. They must be cheap bastards.

    Not receiving my own regional sports programing

    I don't get my RSN ever while one person I know 4 miles away gets it on the cheaper package. My zip code is not in their system while I get it with cable or E*. Do you ever get your RSN? I assume their system is really screwed up and your RSN availability is dependent on where or who you bought...

    More Crappy DTV SD Football

    I can't watch it because I can't stand the poor audio which is Bryant Gumble and his sissy fag voice.

    Tipping an installer?

    My tip was hooking up all the receivers, programming the remotes, and running the phone lines during the install so that's more than enough so he can get to his next intall quicker.

    Sunday ticket price increase!

    DTV will never make money off it they just use that to make money on the Total packages. It's a good marketing tool even if one person only gets it one time because they may earn a customer for years afterwards. DTV will be the only that that ever gets it because the NFL has to protect the...

    Gameplan

    I will order Gameplan but just got done paying for ST so I've been paying a lot lately for TV. I wasn't really complaining just a little disappointed. There is a lot of "free" college games on but at times my local ABC shows a boring game and some become blowouts so it's nice to see a top...

    Gameplan

    I see that DTV is offering that for $109 as an early bird special. I find this kind of high, I thought it would be like 89 or 99. What do you think?

    Confused by DirecTV practices

    There really isn't much to be confused about if you learn about human nature and how things work. Go out and hire 100 people and you'll get good, dedicated ones and ones that suck as well and then some "in between." Also, all 100 people won't be equal because some will be assistant managers or a...

    Changing Programming via Internet

    Just down or side-grades depending on who you talk to. They hit you with like double the amount to downgrade from porn.

    D* Autobilling question

    I agree with damaged. Te less people who have access to your card the better. Especially if you have a bad week at work and don't get many hours.

    Sunday ticket price increase!

    I got mine for $209 since I ordered in Feb. $229 for people that order it now. I've always had E* so this is my first time and will enjoy it. Especially when I get many B and C games here. The price being too much depends on your situation. I suppose I could get Fox E&W and request a waiver from...

    Any way to get new subscriber discounts over their normal offers?

    You can cancel your contract if you return the equipment for a fee. Read the small print. I own my equipment and can send back my receivers instead of an early termination fee. I'm not sure how it is with the fee on the lease but it may be better to pay it to get what you want now instead of...

    New 2 DTV - Why is picture quality different?

    I just posted a new thread about this. Most SD channels look awful compared to a few weeks ago.

    Picture Quality

    What is going on with DTV's picture quality? It has been degrading now for some time but I don't know for how long. Just about all SD channels now looks like crap. This includes heavy pixalization, blurriness, and all kinds of other "artifacts". Basketball this weekend was unwatchable on all...

    2 sattelite dishes 1 switch poor picture, perfect signal?

    DTV's pic is now way overcompressed on almost all SD channels. Much worst now than a few weeks ago. Cable looks much better whether digital or analog.

    Anyone having the same problem?

    Perhaps try another input on the multiswitch if you have one open.

    XM Channels

    They aren't going to spend as much money for audio in the aquipment compared to a CD player.

    Should I Switch to DirecTV?

    The Nascar race yesterday was even breaking up on my Fox although football use to look good on it. Maybe they stole some bandwidth for the games on NBC. I have good picture quality on my locals under regular programming other than a little "snow" (white spots here and there) on PBS.

    buy now or lease later?

    I'd get the R-15 now because if you ever leave DTV then you can keep your favorite movies up to like 100 hours. I got the Super Bowl saved "forever." I like the R15 and never used Tivo exept one time a couple years ago and the guide was so damn slow that I would never consider it.

    Any subscription promos after 3/1/2006?

    I thought TC + is 48.99 a month. Also the top package is 96.99 with locals. http://www.directv.com/see/landing/new_service_rate.html

    Directv Going To Lease Only On 3/1/06

    That's apples to oranges. Many of the people who started out with DTV lived in the sticks (no cable) or were sports fanatics. IMO, the high price of DTV in the early years is why E* has customers.
