    Trees in way, Dish network still possible?

    I am going to talk to the land lord again. The office people said no one can put anything on the roof, but who knows. I have a 100 foot tree and a 50 foot building right across. I don't think it is possible without getting on the back roof. The 20 degree over the dish might explain how one of...

    Trees in way, Dish network still possible?

    I live in an apartment complex with trees and buildings blocking most of the area from our Patio. I tried to have Direct Tv installed, but the tech came out and said it was not possible due to trees. Is Dish Network more forgiving? I have seen 3 other dish network dishes in our area, one only...

    any luck with HD locals using indoor antenna?

    Previously I had one Silver Sensor and no singnal. I combined two of them, and get CBS clear, but no others. I am going to try some more positions and see what happens.

    No Permission Slip

    I read the same thing, but the font office girl said Direct TV would not even start installing unless I had a form. I really didn't care about the Land Lord's opinion (knowing they can't stop me legally), I was just worried Direct TV had some policy that they wouldn't start work until they had...

    No Permission Slip

    Is it possible to have Direct tv install even without a permission slip from the land lord? My Apartment Company always gives permission (lots of dishes everywhere), but they are taking forever to get the signed form back (more than a week so far). I just want my d tv! If this won't work...

    HD local channels without extra ant?

    Hi, I am new to HD and Direct TV. I just signed up for Direct tv HD. I am unable to get any channels via an antenna (I have a built in HD receiver). Are you saying Direct TV HD does not broadcast local HD channels via satellite? I am in the LA Area, but not close enough for antenna reception...

    Mounting Direct TV Dish on long pole

    Thanks, I guess I will find out Friday when we put it in. I have heard conflicting reports so I was trying to think of other options. I will keep my fingers crossed. :)

    Mounting Direct TV Dish on long pole

    Well, After viewing my area, I don't think the 12 foot pole on the roof would help, as the trees go up another 20 feet higher than that on my roof. There is an area across the way that is clear of branches about 30x40 feet that I am wondering if the signal could get through. I am pretty sure...

    Mounting Direct TV Dish on long pole

    Does anyone have experience mounting a direct tv dish on say a 50 foot pole? (there is another building and trees blocking the south) My apt. won't let me drill or perminantly attach a dish, but it seems by law I can have a pole as long as it is 12' below roof line, and within my patio area (2...
