That is a generous offer. I have had D* since Mar 1995 and when I went to upgrade to HD, the offered me a $200 price with a new two year agreement...The 2 year commitment didn't hurt, I never plan to leave but, the $200 for a leased receiver that I do not own make no sense.....The new customer...

I do have a charge-back potential just like every HSP tech....And I remember as of yesterday I have still had zero charge-backs my entire career....I am not trying to get into a type fight with you...I ran the HSP in this market for 4 years, I know the rules ....I simply was trying to get the...

First of all I install drop shipped equipment. They are supplied what the retailer gives them.I don't use a tripod ever on a residential install, never...Like you said that is a service call waiting to happen..I'm been out here for 25 years and I know how to install satellites correctly..I was...

A regular tripod will have to be fabricated to fit the bigger mast for the Slimline, I do it when I have to per apt. regulations...Also a non penetrating roof mount would be an option, I don't put a non pen on the ground, but I see a lot of them around Memphis in apt complexes..I don't...

I have had D* since March 1995. I have been a retailer, a HSP site manager, a contractor..all for D*... I love every aspect of their service except, they treat me less than fair on upgrades...I have only had one leased receiver since the beginning..That's the one I have now...They wanted $199...

Phase three will work fine, the signal qualities won't be full blown, but it will work just fine...You can find a slim line dish on auction sites for a lot less than $200..If you would drive to my house I would sell you one for $50...They are out there, just search around...

I fear that you are a tad wrong. Yes, the HSP tech running around the country can probably only point and click, I've been out here for 24 years and yes, I am a satellite installer, but my knowledge is light years away from point and click...Generalization is the number one cause of stereotyping...

In some markets D* utilizes the 72.5 slot to receive local programming....If you are in one of those markets and you have HD and INT. programming you would actually have 3 dishes...i.e. my brother's house in southeastern Illinois.

Well that installer was a bozo...

Your point is moot......I don't believe you have the intellect to say what people should and should not be making....If you're a waitress, I don't have to tip you, you took that job hoping for tips...I don't expect a tip when I install anything because yes, I am getting paid...Just your thought...

What's the thing doing ? Have you figured it out yet ?

Don't tip the man who goes above and beyond the job description to get you installed . I understand the stinking thinking, but what goes around comes around...Kudos for the man tipping the guy who did not try to charge him any custom fees for trenching...I have installed stuff in people's houses...

With that signal meter you are using, you need to aim the dish with the sensitivity all the way up, when you peak a satellite turn down the sensitivity until the you lose the signal, fine tune until you peak the meter again, repeat this until you can no longer see the needle peaking...It will...

Make sure you have the BBC if you are using an old style 4 port Slim Line LNB...When you hook the BBC up you should have the 99 and 103 satellite. I was under the impression that the HR24 and H24 did not need the BBC's connected which ever LNB you utilized, I found that out to be dead wrong...

No you didn't....... Oh yes you can sir......You have been visited by some of Memphis' finest. There are professional satellite installers in Memphis but, you won't find many of them driving those white company vans...I am contractor , I have 3 contracts for installing DirecTv, FTA and anything...

First of all, $50 is a fair price to come to your house and work on your satellite to get it up and going properly...You could run you a Craigslist ad in your part of the world and see if you get can a satellite tech in your area for less. I am an independant and you kind of hurt my feelings...

Yeah a 18x20 dish is an 1 5/8 mast....

yes sir it is....

I had an install of 7 receivers in a double-wide trailer in MS with not only a tv in the bathroom, but it was sitting on top of the lady's mini fridge...A t.v. is understandable , but a fridge in the toliet ? Too much bathroom time I believe...That's the last place I want to eat a sandwich...

Ditto, I was wondering if mine just died...Unplugged and everything was fine..Phone has been ringing off the hook all morning with mad customers....Everyone I have had re-boot came back up with no problem...
