    Wing dish DIY question

    After thinking it over last night I decided to call Dish and setup an intallation rather than do it myself. Didn't make sense to spend $30 or $40 on a new LNB plus have to buy cable since they were offering to do it for free and waive the 24 month commitment. Not to mention my amateur...

    Wing dish DIY question

    OK, thanks for the help. I've found a Dishpro Dual LNBF in the Dishstore that I'll order and change out on the 500. Once I get that in I might be back with a question or two on the install. One thing I'm confused about now is how many cables I'll have running from the 500? Iceberg, were...

    Wing dish DIY question

    I've got a 1000.2 picking 110, 119, and 129. I've got a 500 in the attic that the installer didn't take with him last fall when I upgraded to the 1000.2. Is it possible for me to put the 500 up as a wing dish to pick up 61.5 (HD locals) without having to call Dish back out here? If so what...

    New bie quetsion -What satellite's are good to have for dish?

    Thanks for info:up. One other question though- how far in the future is the Eastern Arc? I've currently got an OTA that does pretty well so I could wait if that seems like a better option. My main motivation with upgrading now was A) they offered me free without even having to ask and B) the...

    New bie quetsion -What satellite's are good to have for dish?

    How could I find similar info for Jackson, MS? I've currently got a Dish1000 pointed at 110, 119, and 129. My HD locals are now available on 61.5 which I'm told will require a second dish. I was trying to figure out if there is a way for me to get 61.5 without a second dish.
