SatelliteGuys - Retailer Chat Recap: April 22nd 2008

how does a "card swap" work for "movers"? do "movers" have a billing address and a service and the card is sent to the billing address?
 
942 that go bad will receive a 622. (This is only for customers whos old unit needs replacement)
hmm... time for my 942 to have an "accident".

And since I own the 942, would a 622 replacement be owned or leased (not that it matters, since all resale value on it is now gone )?

For those wondering the DTV PAL logo alomost looks like a ripoff of the Tivo Logo.

Its a TV Set with antennas on the top which spell out DTV.

The word PAL is on the screen.

I am going to reboot my computer and try getting a screen shot of it.
 
Why the card swap in the first place? It seems I remember reading something on it, but I can't find anythig.
Because there's about a million people with FTA receivers out there watching Dish Network without paying for it.
 

I smell another lawsuit coming or maybe a tivo buyout by dn
 
Don't forget that "accessible" smart cards are no longer used in most of Dish's receivers, such as 722, 622, 612, 222, 211, 625, 522, 381, 322, and 311.

Therefore, no swap-out needed for those receivers.

This is wrong. All of these receivers have the smart card slot. Once a new card is inserted in this slot, the built in smart card will be disabled.

Oh God, you're right. Lack of sleep, the dog peed on my leg, the sun came up in the west, etc., etc., whatever lame excuse to explain my brain-lock there.
 
Ok here is the DTV Pal logo and box.
