I called on Friday to cancel ST and the rep said he could take care of that for me. He made no attempt to offer anything or direct me to retentions. After a short wait he said he was able to cancel it for me. I guess I'll call back in a couple of weeks to see if there are any deals then.

I have an H24 in my back bedroom. This weekend I'm going to deer camp where I have a round dish permanently mounted and would like to take this receiver to use to watch tv. Will this receiver work with this dish? I doubt I'll be able to get HD content, but will I get SD versions of most of my...

I guess I"m in the minority, but I have always been a PIP fan and miss having PIP on my newer TVs and equipment. If I had it I would definitely use it. I think the reason PIP enabled TVs are rare is because manufacturers look for every way possible to reduce production costs, and not...

Called yesterday and was initially offered $5 per month discount for 6 months and free Showtime for 12 months. I told the CSR that I don't really watch movies so I'd pass on that deal. Then said I wanted to cancel ST. I really was going to cancel at that price. She transferred me to a 'ST...

My secretary signed up for D* about 5 months ago. Of course, because she's a new subscriber she was locked into a 24 month contract. She is moving at the end of the month, and her new apartment doesn't have a line of sight- her unit doesn't have a SW facing opening. Is there any way for her...

So, based on this information, with such a significant increase in subs D* could increase profits even if they didn't have an annual price increase. They obviously aren't hurting for $ with a billion dollars in profit for the quarter, so why the need to maintain the HD fee or have an annual...

I have a buddy that has D* who moved this weekend and wanted to take his D* service with him. The house he moved to has 1 RG6 cable run to each room in the house as it was wired for cable. The installer who handled my buddy's move said the single cables wouldn't work for his dual-tuner DVR...

I currently have an HR-23 DVR in my living room and a SD receiver as my 2nd receiver in the bedroom. I take my SD receiver with me when I go to hunting camp in the winter and up til now this system has worked great. I'm only at hunting camp periodically so I don't want to pay for full time...

It depends on what you expect. As long as you know that you will not receive any of the professional sports (MLB, NBA, etc) broadcasts on the regional sports networks because they all require additional package subscriptions, then the decision is yours. Personally, the only time I think it...

Yes, my contract has been fulfilled. I guess I am somewhat of a free agent. That being the case, I don't guess there is any was to negotiate the AAA discount onto my contact once I move, is there?

In about 2 months I will be moving and am curious about what my best option is. Should I request a move from D or should I close my current account and start a new account in my wife's name at our new address? If I select the 'move' option, will I keep all of my current equipment and have it...

I hope to begin construction on a new house in the next month and would like to hard wire it for D* and OTA. I currently have an HR-23 and a SD receiver (don't remember the model number). I'd like to look at adding at least one more HD receiver. What's the best way to go about making sure the...

Thanks for the information. I've talked it over with the manager and she's willing to grandfather me in but claims she has to get approval from corporate to do so. The complex recently changed owners and she doesn't know what the new owners will say because she hasn't worked with them very...

I've lived in my current apartment complex for 3 years and had D* for about 2 of the 3 years. I complied with all of the apartment rules at the time I had D* installed (no drilling, within the confines of my balcony, etc). Yesterday I got notice that the apartment policies regarding satellite...

Is it in HD? They did say there would be HD channels added by the end of Q1, and it's officially the end of Q1.

I saw a new D* commercial yesterday where they claimed to be the HD leader, the validity of which has been discussed in depth on this forum. What I found to be interesting on the commercial is the fact that D* claims that they now have the capacity for over 200 HD channels. Other...

I posed this question in the thread about the new Choice package, but since that is an older thread I think it might be being overlooked, so here it is again. With the new Choice Ultimate package coming out, is D* going to make any changes to the Premium packages? I currently subscribe to...

Will there be any tweaking of the premium packages as a result of this new option? Right now I subscribe to the Starz pack, but only because I get all of the Encore channels as well. The Starz pack doesn't justify a $12 charge if its only for the 5 Starz channels.

I subscribed to ST for the 2nd half of this season and was really impressed. I liked the mix channel the best. I was thinking about doing the full season next year, but at the increased price I'm not sure it's worth it. I might consider doing the half season again though.

I subscribe to the Sunday Ticket package. I am going to visit family for a weekend, and while they are D* subscribers they do not subscribe to the ST package. Is it possible for me to take or transfer my ST subscription with me when I go?

Yeah, good luck with that. I called a couple of times, spent literally an hour on the phone trying to get the discount, had it applied to my bill retroactively (they applied 3 months worth of the $5 credit at one time for a total of $15 one month) in October, then in November I again didn't...

It means Keep. The progam will remain on your DVR until you delete it manually. Did you use a remote source to set this recording? I know that when I use my iPhone app to set a recording the default for that recording is to Keep until manually deleted.

Along the lines of this thread, how does the AM21 work? I've searched and can't find a simple answer. Do I need an additional exterior antenna or do I just plug it in and connect it to my HR-21 and go from there? I'm missing out on some decent programming on some of my local sub-channels...

I'm sure this has been discussed, but since D* is not broadcasting Versus during their dispute, why doesn't D* make use of the extra HD slot and carry the ESPNU HD feed for college football? If and when the Versus dispute gets settled and D* decides to carry Versus again, they could carry...

Well, October is quickly drawing to a close. Any word on the launch date of the new satellite D12? I seem to remember a mention of a launch date sometime in October? Being relatively new to this site and and to D* I'm wondering if D* posts information on the launch and its success? If not...
