Thx for quick reply! I have been without contract for over 5 years and want to keep it that way, lol! Is there a 1 or 2 year contract involved? I hope not cause Voom will not be welcomed in my home if there is.
Just do it. You'll love the VOOM channels. Monsters HD alone is worth the price of admission.
The 61.5 location is where that spot beam satellite from VOOM sits, which would be just dandy for providing HD local channels by the end of the year. The money you spend on a 61.5 dish will likely be very worth it.

Your loc says DFW...Do you have locals throught Dish?
If so......call them and tell them you have a local channel that needas a 2nd dish (there is a Spanish Indy channel on the wing).
Dish will come out and install the dish and switches for FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Yes it will be at 148, but you may be able to get them to aim it at 61.5 for you. If not, have them aim it at 148 and we'll help you get it to 61.5
oh, DO NOT mention Voom to the CSR if you are getting the free dish.....get it installed and on 61.5, then order it through CSR's or online

There was no contract required for mine. BTW, Monsters is pretty good, but RAVE is my favorite!

This is exactly what I did. There is a local home shopping channel on 61.5 so I called them and told them that I couldn't see the channel. She said no problem we will come out and install a new dish free of charge.

Lucky! There wasn't any locals channels of any kind on the 61.5 satellite location for my area, so I was forced to shell out $99.
Thx all for the great info! I do have locals via Dish and it looks like I might be getting a free Voom install 
thx to you guys! Might call tomorrow if I have time.
One last question, I call Dish and not a local installer right? Thx again!

I'm glad you like Rave now. In one more month you will have seen all of the concerts unfortunately ;-( That is one think I loved about Inhd1 & 2 was the variety of weekly concerts both old groups (The Who, Jethro Tull etc..) and the new. They played the entire concerts as well, not just the 1 hour PBS Soundstage version.datwell said:
Shockingly, when I "moved" to my father's house in the Atlanta market, the CSR brought up the free dish install for 61.5 first. I declined for obvious reasons, but was surprised they offered the free dish without me asking.

correct
for the Must Carry rule (the local on the wing), call 1-800-333-DISH but remember...dont say anything about the Voom channels.
Ok, I called this morning and will be getting my second dish installed free! :dev
I am looking forward to my missing shopping channels, lol Any ideas on what I should ask or say to installer to hint that I want it pointed at 61.5? hehe Thx as always!
Oh, nothing was mentioned that this was for Voom, just that I want it for my missing locals.
