I been off from dish for about 2 years now. I left without any problems with them and now wanted to come back. Will I qualify for a new subscriber deals or will be treated as old customer with no deals? I am still living in the same house with same phone number and same last name, ss number etc. Also lastly if go with 4 room install, will they give me one 722 and 3 regular 311 or will i only get the dual tuner 722(connect 2 tvs to it) and then only get 2 311. the reason i dont wanna use 2nd output on 722 is that it is coax and i dont think it will look good on kids room compare to a seperate 311 connected to s video connection.
thanks

see what i mean about retailers... what ever it takes to make a sale.. screw the dish rules... you guys kill me. like the new thing we are going through.. some of you are letting our illegal alien friends sign up as a new customer while they are still watching the old system they had, instead of making them pay the upgrade fee.. which we promptly report.... you are killing my pay raises.

on the original question there are two ways... one is call 1-800-347-4123 and you SHOULD be able to do a new connect as a reconnect.
or two use your significant others name

you can qualify for four leased tuners(ie 722 and two 311s or one 322). the promotion you would qualify for would be "formal customer promotion". this will give you the same dha/dha18 options as a new cust, providing your account was in good service. you would actually be restarting your old account with new leased equipment. if you wanted an extra 311 rec, you would be responsible for the purchase of it plus the purchase of the extra switch(most likely a dpp44 a tech would want to use or two dp34's) and expect to shell out 149 for the purchase and isntall of the 311 and 199 for the swtich.

Depends on what the system says when we put them through, if it says new we build a new account. If it says former customer we build a former DHA account.

If it says "Does not qualify, no way in hell" then we don't do anything!

The best retailers like Claude know all the dish promotions inside out and know what to try in the qualification process to get the best deal possible.

Dish on the other hand has the opposite goal. They want to get the new customer with the smallest amount of incentives and deals. They love it when someone calls in and says I want to turn service back on, I still have the dish and the recievers from the last time in place and I just want to send you money every month.

If your local guys are bad, give Claude a call, he can get you installed.

You can't do 1 2 3 Bob Street because the system checks the address with the post office.

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

I'm getting fabulous picture on Ch. 148 4k, but zero audio with H713. This is with a recorded show (Notre Dame game). Anyone else have this? Audio is fine on every other channel.

It's a known issue.
For a temporary fix, go into the menu, Audio, and turn Dolby Audio "OFF". You will have PCM stereo audio.

I was able to give the tech ops team some data logs so they could diagnose the problem, and they rolled me back to H708 temporarily. It fixed that issue.

They let me know that they understand what caused the issue, and it will be fixed within a few weeks in a new update.

I guess they will be busy when lots of people start asking for rollbacks to H708 now that you mention that downgrades of software does exist because it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner and the IR Remote problems in H710-H713.

it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

I have gotten back into watching SG-1 and I have recorded most of the episodes to binge watch. What episodes are about the Antarctic or was this a movie? Also where could I watch the SG-1 movies?

Well, there are a couple involving the Antarctic. "Solitudes", S1 E17 (one of my favorites), Then, "Lost City', S7 E21 and E22. Then, in the SGA pilot, "Rising", S1 E1 and E2, it starts out in the Antarctic for about the first 20 minutes or so.

Which one has O'Neil being Ancients? I am at the end of Season 8 now.

If I understand your question, O'Neill had the Ancient's knowledge in the "Lost City" two-part episode. That was when Anubis attacked Earth and there was a big battle over Antarctica.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.
