How much will I pay for this setup?

[bertbarndoor]

Just wondering what my monthly bill will look like for the following setup. Please note, none of the receivers will be hooked up to phonelines as I am on cell & skype-out only.

Two HD PVR 622s
1 HD 211

Just wondering, how many $5 no phone line hook-up charges I will have to pay.
Also wondering if any extra tuner fees apply.
Any other issues?

Thanks!

I should mention I am going for the top package plus movie channels.

You will need to purchase the 211 because dish only allows 4 leased tuners. Not sure about phone connections. I have a 622 and 2- 211 receivers. HD platinum,cbs hd, and wor network and my bill is just under $115./mo. Ron

you will pay $5 for each dual tuner not connected to a phone line.
You will pay a lease or an additional receiver fee if you own, not both.
I have a 942/622/510 on plat with locals, pay 104.99+6 lease (622) + 5 arf (510), so add at least another $10 with no phone lines. No fee for 942 (owned) as it's my primary receiver
See post 2 of http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=32421 has summary of fees.

I assume I will have to buy all as I will be doing my own install. So I think the lease is out (I've been told a pro must install if leasing).

Therefore,

I assume I will pay the $5 x 3 = $15 since all three receivers will not be on the line. Is that it then? No, extra receiver fee if I own all of them?

Let's try and make it simple. Owned equipment no phone lines.

211 main receiver no fee except programming.
1st 622 $5.00 additional tuner
2ndtuner $5.00 additional tuner fee
2nd 622 $5.00 additional tuner
2nd tuner$5.00 additional tuner fee
Total additional tuner fees $20.00/mo.

DISH HD Platinum $99.99/mo.
DVR fees $0.00 w/Platinum
Local channels 5.00/mo.
Total $124.99 plus any applicable taxes.

you don't pay additional tuner you pay additional receiver.
For HD receivers you pay $6 each aditional receive ($12) so it's not $20. In addition you wil pay $10, $5 for each 622 (for no phone line on each).

So it would be 12 (addnt rcvr x 2 ) + 10 ( no phone x 2) = 22 + 104.99 = 126.99

I thought Dish let you have 4 receivers (or is that only if you lease?). I'm just wondering why they consider it additional? Anyhow, I would be no phone x3 wouldn't I? Two 622s and one 211. So to me, based on the info I've read here, wouldn't the logic be:

211 - Main receiver, no phone $5
622 - Additional receiver $6, no phone $5
622 - Additional receiver $6, no phone $5
-------------------------------------
Subtotal extra charges $27
-------------------------------------
Programming - 104.99
-------------------------------------
Total $131.99

No phone fee only applies to dual tuners so $126.99 should be correct but DISH will determine your bill.
