What dish would we get?

well its done

guy came today and started out all whiny because it was snowing. Not hard but we had snow. He mentioned a few times "I dont like to work in the snow" (yet he said he had been a tech for 3 1/2 years) and "I should have rescheduled it"
He asked me what was to be done and I told him EVERYTHING that had to be done. I even offered to help and after talking with him he figured I knew what I was talking about. He even thanked me for helping him get the receivers set up and such

It was about 3 hours start to finish and that was installing the dish, running the 2 cables down the house to the grounding block then multiswitch and running 3 cables to the rooms. 1 was already there.

Had a minor issue with one receiver not getting evens but that was due to a bad connection he put on but that was a quick fix. But otherwise he did the install real well. As good as I would

so now my sister is a new member of the D* Family

I think it went well because I was there. If my sister was there she'd either still be waiting for him to finish the job or it would have been pushed back


she wont come here....if she has questions she'll ask me. And if I dont know I'll ask the "pros"

I did learn something new today...how to force an update on a receiver

So I dont go in the CE area unless I get a reported post that a thread needs to be moved out of there
