Depends on the installer..... if they want to work they will, if they don't want to work they won't. If you called an 800 number and it's an MSP or HSP coming out I am sure they will as it is all about getting the job done with those guys. If it is raining and they do the install, it more than...

4 to 5 recievers with DirecTV.... lets see. With DirecTV not paying anything to the installers...probably will take the guy 6 to 8 hrs due to the fact that he will probably have about a week of experience. Call a local retailr and someonethat knows what they are doing. Good luck and let us know...

I would say he told you to leave the work order open due to the fact that if you close it and want to open another then Dish will run another credit check or the fact that when he does return... and hopefully he does... and you have closed the work order, then he will not be able to do the...

igator, should have asked the E* tech for his number and if he would be interested in having the install re-assigned to him for a little bit of cash..... of course paid uopn completion of the job.

Good to know that you don't care if the installer does a crappy job, because he'll probably just come out and tell you that there is no line of site for the amount of money he will get paid to do the jos.. better for him to say no line of sote and not get paid then to do the job and make his...

Cancel your credit card that Direct has on file........new account under wifes name, credit catd and cell phone with address to include 1/2 with Dish.... could'nt be easier.

61.5 and 129 and.................... AT9 I'm guessing you gave up on the DirecTV fiasco and called someone from Dish Network??????? As I have always and will always say... saty away from DirecTV and their HSP - MSO bullsit

Call a couple of LOCAL numbers... your proiblem is you are dealing with out of town "MARKETING" companies. Go with a local guy......... Damn.. stupid people.... the same thing wouldhappen if you were trying to buy a car via the phone....

Zidion....look in the phone book and call a local retailer or dealer, no 800 numbers or websites. Depending on the rules of the apartment complex you may ned a specially mount for the dish and some flat wires. ALOT of apartment complexes have very strict rules when it comes to a satellte system...

Dump em... go to Dish... more Hi.Def

I have'nt heard anything about 129 problems in the south or north. My understanding is that most people on the East coast are using 61.5

Looking at the photos I would have to agree with Stevo...... no shot at the 61.5 but looks as though the 129 would be there. And as mentioned earlier.. there is always the possibilty of a two dish system... your current location for 110/119 and another at 61.5 or 129 if 61.5 isn't possible.

igator... if you need or want someone local to your area.. as I said ealrier I can post on a couple of other forums and try to find someone for you.

igator are you now trying to get Dish Network installed?????? If so and you want Hi-def you will be getting a Dish1000. If you currently hace the PhaseIII DirecTV dish and are gettiong all of your programming then the Dish1000 should work where you're current Diush is. At least for core and...

You would ahve been better off calling a LOCAL dealer or retailer..... better installs and better service after the sale. Let us know how the install goes and looks. If I were you I would do as Boba said and go with the local guy. Good luck... I have a feeling you're going to need it.

igator.... look in the phone book.. there has to be a local company that can help you out. If need be.... cancel your account and start a new one under the wifes name and cell phone number.

Mine did the same thing... three times... switched to Dish and all is good. Thankfully the T.V.'s were still under warranty.

igator... don't respond to those DNS guys..... they are Dish Network Service techs... underpaid and overworked.... always looking for a hand out as they are paid by the hour and don't get paid for what most techs or should I say real techs... consider custom work. As I mentioned earlier, pay...

igator....you yourself said the trenching would be tough... especially with a hand dig. As far as what you should pay... that would be between you and the company coming out. Be fair but not overly generous, though I am sure the installer would appreciate the generous part. I'm in Nebraska...

I might have to guess the guy was feeding you full of... well you know what. When I am at an install and people ask me about satellite... let it be any company, I just reply.... I'm really not too sure... I just install them.....not too sure how it all works... but then again... noones ever...

igator.... have you ried calling sopmeone local... out of the phone book maybe. This is why I always stress dealing with local people... no internet and no 800 numbers. Keep us posted.

DirecTV will not give the persom anything extra for the pole mount and trenching the cable. Unfortunately the tech.. is he does the pole mount will have to hand trench the cable. They will more than likely pay them for the Dish Upgrade and additional receiver. If I was you I woud offer the tech...

In defense of you and the tech that will come out, remember, most of these guys are contractors not employees. If he is working for a HSP he will only get paid for an upgrade... probably about $30 - $40 and will be expected to do any and all work required to install the new dish for free. Now as...

Look in the phone book and call some locla retailrs or dealers. Ask them to come out to your house and explain rthe installation process and all the programming options and cost's. Then go with the one you fill most comfortable with. A namy here would probably tell you, I would'nt just look at...

DTV and their HSP and MSP program sucks..... we all know that. I pitty all those unexpecting customers that sign up with DTv for the local telco's "BUNDLED PACKAGE" a few maonths after the HSP or MSP does their "DIGITAL CABLE" install and installs the "FREE" now mandated by DTV - phone lines...
