Back to topic. I think that if Dish were to quit spending billions of dollars on wireless spectrum that they may never use, then they wouldn't have to worry about slashing labor costs and keeping up with their target revenues and profits. Just my 2 cents.
Dish (is not) cutting retailers installation payments again.

I also take pride in my Grammar, and my Grandpar too. Spelling though not so much.
My achilles heel is typing "Pole" when I mean "Poll"
They are saying Dish Cut retailer payments for installing Hoppers and Joeys. One of the most involved install in my opinion.
I still haven't seen any cuts in payments but I'll keep my eye on it. I also agree that the Hopper install is by far the most involved install and can consume a lot of time.
Thats only because they want the sales people push that garbage on to the customers. Its not because the install is more complex
The wiring may not be that much more complex but there are way more complications with getting the system up and running than there is with VIP equipment. There is way more time tied up with Hopper installs than any other equipment.
This is true.. I would rather connect a 722 any day over a Hopper just because of the cable restriction or required dual lines to the node. Far too many times I"ll just find a place a few feet from the dish if needed to do a short double line run and mount the node in case of a single existing line running from the dish to the hopper location then just tap it off to a joey if need be. The other issue here is Perfect Vision cable which works just fine and Dish has gone anal on not allowing it to be used to the hopper yet they can be used to the joey, now how stupid is that??? It is 3Ghz cable and works fine so deal with it Dish!
The mods who figured out that you're being screwed by your boss. There are many installer/owners on this website that see nothing like your boss is telling you...
You may want to have a little talk with your employer and find out some more details to back up what he told you.
