I'm currently a AT250 subscriber and would like to upgrade to AT250 + HD Gold. In addition, I'd like to upgrade my box from a basic 2-room receiver to the 2 room receiver with DVR.
I was told by Dish that in my zip code (Minneapolis area) that I might require 2 satellites if there was not a strong enough signal or at the very least a new dish would be required. Just wondering if anyone in the Minneapolis area has had any experience with this. Did you need 2 dishes in order to get the SD and HD signals? If only 1 dish is required, is the new dish they install compatible with my current mast/mounting system or will they have to install a new mount and/or run new cabling?
As far as costs, I was told that the upgrade would be $150 (-$50 promo) to upgrade to the 2 room HD DVR and an additional $10/month programming. Does this sound right? Is there any monthly upgrade fee for a DVR?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
