Does DIRT still come around these parts?

I don't think so. I just upgraded to a H3 and a Joey 3. I have very old RG59. The tech didn't check the wiring.

That doesn’t exactly mean that it isn’t “required” by Dish standard. Just that the tech didn’t do it. JSheridan , you’d be the man to ask on this. Did they upgrade the supported requirement?

They have changed the way DIRT works. They still come here, but only popup for a moment to check their inbox (and each of the 20+ DIRT members have their own inbox) and if they have no messages they go to their next site.

In the past DIRT members spent all day here reading posts and if they found issues they would report them up the chain so they would get fix. DISH would learn about issues here first before they ever came through their phone lines.

Now DIRT is just regular CSRs who browse social meda. Before DIRT was members of the Office of the President.

I think it just depends on the tech. When I was originally installed there were no issues with my current wiring and the service worked fine but when I had my dish moved a few months down the road because of re-shingling my roof I thought the tech's head was going to explode over things like connectors, splitters and coax. He couldn't snip things off and replace them fast enough; even barged into my house and replaced wall plates.
