Welcome New Members! (Please Say HI here!)

newbie says HI!

Hi all-
After staging a 3 year hiatus (should I say protest) from sat. TV because they almost doubled my sub. $ overnight, it looks like I'm about to be back in the thick of it!
And thank the heavens (get it) there is a site with forums and knowledge like this one!
I've been watching one- yes one- over air channel for that length of time but I just got a Valentines Day present in the mail yesterday from my MOM! (I love you too MOM!)...
It's a Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra which I know 0 about except what I have learned from reading this site for the last 24 hours!
I'm picking up a dish and rotor and LNB ASAP and can't wait to let you all educate me...I'll let you know as soon as I get 'er up and running...
P.S.- Comments on this unit and/or where to find sat. "help" (dish etc.). Anyone got one they wanna part with or...??? And what should I do with my old DSS box and dish?
Thanking you in advance...Arja
 
Good to be here, New member, But I have been a Direct tv then Cable Instaler. Then opened a small home theater contracting company before retiring to stay home with my son!

Hi whats guys
 
Good day. I found out about FTA about a year ago, but I still haven't taken the plunge. I had Dish for five years and loved it, but I'd like to get something that I can pay for once and be done with it. I've learned a great deal in these forums, and yet I still feel like I know very little. These forums are very informative, so I will continue to peek in every now and then. Ciao.
 
Hi All!

I have been a lurker on this site for some time. I decided to join because this is one great place to get the scoop on DBS & other great stuff. I have a older Mits HDTV monitor connected to an E* model 6000. I got this equipment in April of 2001. Before that I was a long time BUD user. I self installed all my equipment. Definitely interested in the VIP622 but I wait till the dust settles before I take the plunge. I am very leery of any E* rec. after having the 6000 as many of you know.
I look forward to learning more from the great folks here.

First Post from a long time lurker. I have been following the Verizon forum. Eagerly waiting for service to come to my area.
 
Thanks!

I have found great info. on this site. If I waited on Dish Network to get me this type of info. I would have given up on them a long time ago. Keep up the great work. I'm getting my 622 on 2/28. I hope it works as good as my 942.
 
Hello all -

Just registered, I've been lurking for about a year. Finally got tired of not being able to see the .jpg attachments...:D

I follow the Dish Network threads as I have been a Dish customer since they launched their first bird.
 
I just joined yesterday. I found a lot of good information here. I've been a member of Dish since 1998. Can somebody tell me how to update my information such as adding my location. I see another person from my town here athol massachusetts. Big-Ed
