ALL AMERICAN DIRECT CHANNELS & MOVING

[nrholland]

I have received waivers for NBC, ABC, & CBS for AAD. However, my local FOX affiliate denied me.

If I move to another address where I am elgible for all four networks and then decide to move back to the address I have currently, will AAD have to go thru the waiver process with my locals stations again or will my waivers for NBC, ABC, & CBS still stand?

BTW, does AAD check with Dish to see if you service address is the same as the one they have in their records?

AAD doesn't check your address . Do what ever you think will work. I use a credit card with autopay for my AAD. I've not heard a Peep from them Since August 2007 when I first Signed up.

The zipcode 71945 in Arkansas is eligible for all 4 networks. Used it for all my sat receivers on all 3 of my DISH accounts as my service address for distants with AAD . **Now that means I listed all of my sat receivers on all 3 accounts on one account for AAD. I no longer sub to AAD due to poor pic quality and NO hd. IF they ever did offer HD distants like they keep saying they will do( end of 2008, end of first quarter 2009), I would sub again.

That sounds like the definitive answer to me.

Improved PQ

The last couple of weeks I have been getting a free preview of the Distants from AAD due to the fact that I use their service when I work a temporary job in Alpine, Texas where antenna reception is impossible.
The picture quality is very much improved from the last time I had seen those channels. Now they offer New York rather than Atlanta but even the San Francisco channels are better. The only flaw I noticed was a slight vertical band on the left side of the screen on WNBC. Still SD of course.

Do anyone know the answer to my original question posted above?

What you need to do is find an address somewhere in america that makes you eligible to receive all four. Once you do this, call AAD or go to their website. They do not verify with Dish that your address is the same as the one you are giving them, however, they may require you to send in an old bill or piece of mail with your address on it. To get around this if it should arise, print out a label or something on your computer:

John Doe
"my fake address"
"my fake city/state/zip"

and put this over an old bill or such, xerox it, then fax the xerox'd copy to AAD or mail it to them, just make sure your "doctored" copy looks real enough!

Hope this helps.

I had AAD and did not have to verify anything, however, when I tried to get my mom these channels I had to send in a copy of mail showing she stayed somewhere and thats how I know to xerox a label on an old bill or mail piece.

What I can't tell you is... an address that gets eligibility for all 4 networks, its been a long time and I have forgotten what I used.

72529 in Cherokee Village Arkansas qualifies for all 4 from AAD. And I agree it is much better with the switch to NY locals.

What if you qualified with a new address(also different email address and phone #) on their website to get the 4 networks and entered the serial numbers on your receivers, would it know that those serial numbers are currently in use?
If not, sign-up that way, then call and cancel your previous subscription. Then you wouldn't have to worry about sending a copy of a bill in.
Just thinking out of the box.
