Bummer. How about something wrong with 101!!!
I guess I could've tried that. I'll probably just wait til the channels go live on Wednesday (or whenever) and call back. So much for a pre-emptive service call.

I knocked a tree down and it was going to fall on the power lines at any time. I called the power company to tell them it was going to go and hit the lines at some point so please send someone out to fix. They refused, I put number on speed dial, went to bed, wind picked up, I heard the tree go, guess what, no power. Called them up, they fixed all of it and power back in hours. Could have been easier on everyone (daylight versus 1 AM).
Continue off topic: my wife works for the local power company and their policy for trees and powerlines is to clear around the lines so that during normal (non-windy) times, the branches do not touch the line. This is a blind policy, so even if the tree is leaning and the root ball is showing, they will only trim the "potentially dangerous" branches. The actual removal or further maintenance of the tree is your (landowners') responsibility only. That is until the tree actually falls all the way down and interrupts power. Then they will come out, cut around as needed, then hook the lines back up. You still have to clear the fallen tree from your yard. Their excuse is they are not a tree-trimming operation, and it is easier for them to not set a precedent and just call their crews out at 1AM (they are on standby and getting paid regardless of time of day).
We can't post on topic untill we have a channel launch.I think we have heard just about every part of the countrys Signal strengths reports.Maybe your right,this thread has ran its course.
to tell you the truth ,I've seen them do alot of crazy stuff. I'm not so sure they are done up there yet.
not happy with dtv they must be hiring csr's directly from *ish
called to setup my repoints
on hold for 1 hour only to find out the y have my old
address in mt and cnt change addy to mn as it should be
took them a hour to figure that out and now claim cpu problems so i have to call back in 3-4 hours or tomorrow to finally get this situation resolved
i expect this from *ish but not dtv
dtv dont get to complacent with yourself's otherwise youre just asking for trouble
patiently waiting for repoints in anticipation of upcoming hd

well i had a service call 2 weeks ago bout repoints and was told you have best signal i can get, yet at any hint of cloud cover/ rain severe macroblocking or 771 searching for sat signal, its been going on for awhile and ive bit my tongue well no longer, i pay my bill id like to actually watch some of the hd programming
ill cut them some slack as i guarntee the tech that was last out here will never stepfoot on my property again
but well see how long i have to wait for service call once their cpus are up and running again
hemi 6.1, you be just as upset as i am if you were in my shoes imho
Well I see transponders 1,2,3 after being
all zero for quite a while now, have all gone
hot again(in the 90's for me)...I would not
plan on any adjustments to my dish just
now, based on these signal readings...they
are apparently still playing with the transponders.....low/no readings mean nothing at this point!
