Call the local station again and complain.

When this happens again, You need to call every 5 mins until they "flip the switch"

There's always "moving" to another market. Quite a few other markets on that same spotbeam if you can get good signal on those transponders.

You could easily get Atlanta channels from the Knoxville area. I know because I do this when I'm in Knoxville tailgating for UT games.

You would call dish (or use the online chat) and tell them that you have moved to an address in the Atlanta DMA, but that your billing address is the same. they will change your locals from Knoxville to Atlanta and you will not have to watch WATE anymore, instead you'll get WSB. Easy as that.

You don't need to know anyone. Just pick an address. As long as you leave your billing address as your Knoxville address the service address (which is what you'll be changing to Atlanta) makes no difference other than to give you a different city's locals.

Find an address on a realtor site, add one to the number. No one will have that address.

Don't worry about it. My VoIP line shows up as a number several states over anyways on mine.

Good job! Hopefully that will solve your problem!

No, you can have them ship to your billing address.

I am in Knoxville and just did this because I was installed on the western arc. I am facing the wrong way for the Knoxville HD locals. Everything is working just fine for me, but I have a question for lakebum431. Where did you get that dish cover? I love it. Also, should I expect that the Atlanta locals will remain on the 129 satellite, or will that market eventually be converted to eastern arc?
