I'm in the Chicago area. We ordered it Wednesday night and they said they could make it as early as Saturday but we were busy so they set up a Sunday date. Its hard to believe that you can't get it installed until September. They must really be reeling in the customers with the Sunday Ticket deal and perhaps there a ton of people in your area that signed up with it.
Steve, Welcome to the site !Well the installer was here and now gone. No DTV.![]()
If I can get installed with SWM LNB, can't they just run the wire down the back of the house, disconnect the cable wire and then attach theirs inside the box?
if they don't have an swm then buy one from ebay. these swm lnb's save a lot of time and hassle.
no but you could also do what i did. after he left i went up on the roof and switched it out. sold the one i took off on ebay. super easy steve. the problem is that D doesn't have this available for all areas. FYI1. I own
2. I was under the impression that D* provides training/certification for installing the SWM LNB's, if I hand him one and say "Use this", he may refuse no?

Ok
I found them for $150
I believe D does have them available in my area (Chicago), but they don't seem to want to give it to me. Something about reserved for 5 tuners or more.![]()
