    DTV Installers

    if you had his tech number, you could say i only want this tech to do this.. i will deny any other techs. i often had customers perfer me and always get me at their door when i gave them my tech number when they call in for me. Even if they had an upgrade or a SC... the got me one way or another.

    any installers know how to pass red x's ?

    I have to agree with dave here. what if you get no line of sight, or decides they want to cancel. once you activate it, its in that customer's name and if had it been a NOL, you just activated their account and they are now have to pay for your dumb sh*t. does YOUR supervisor know you do...

    any installers know how to pass red x's ?

    Umm Dave... how do you OVER RIDE detection of satellite setup and installation test??? when you install a NEW system, you cant bypass the Installation test which will tell you if you get a RED box or not, especially if youre under 85%. you must not really install much do you?

    any installers know how to pass red x's ?

    Um, Dave... i tried doing that once.. but when it goes to Detecting Satellite Setup, it will still give error bc it will detect 99 and 103 or if you have the SL5 110, 119 99 and 103.... so either way it will red box you and you cant move on to the next step. Directv did this on purpose to...

    Preset???? i ddint know they were preset.. wait... arent the dishes have to be put together? how is that preset? 90 or better? fail... its 85% or better to pass the test. But you do want your signals to be 90% or better in general but we're talking about the test, it has to be 85% or better...

    Unmarry a directv card

    that ASSUMING its a reciever on HIS account and not another account. othewise its impossible to do. BUT why do that? then youd still be STUCK with ONE reciever not having card... POINTLESS..

    Unmarry a directv card

    impossible to do. depends on what kind of reciever. new recievers such as D10, D11, D12 R15, H20, H21, H22, H23, HR20, HR21, HR22s will not. im assuming you want to take a card and go to another reciever and plug it in? EVERY directv reciever is married to that SN to match the Card...

    Weird "Burp" Sound only on FOXHD 360

    yah it can do that but it may do it also on another channel that FOX NEWS uses on that transponder. Ive had several SMW installs where a customer would record a cartoon show and end up recording Friday movie. She was one very unhappy customer. another says to have change channels on its...

    Copper Cable

    I hope not.. RG-59 wont even work with Dish to reciever anyways. thats a repeat service call waiting to happen... and it will happen in 4-5 days after install. we're even told RG-59 from TV to source of satellite is NOT allowed.. and RG-59 after freciever works just as fine.. but they...

    From dish to directv

    your existing pole will probably, im guessing, 1 3/4 size while the Slimline is a 2 inch pole required. you will get the 1 meter sized dish (slimline) with either SL3 or SL5. probably in your location, im guessing SL5.
