I live in Rancho Cucamonga and when I tried to buy a 942 when they rolled out the local installers in my area wanted and arm and a leg ($1,200) to bring one over and install it.
So, I brought their price gouging ways to the attention of the CEO at Dish. They called me at work the next day and offered me a 942 lease at a time when leases were not available to existing subscribers.
I just upgraded my 942 to a 622 lease through Dish and I am super pleased with the installation experience.
So, I have all my work done by calling Dish directly.
My local installers blow.
