New 811

[goose61282]

At the moment I have a 721, and a few months ago I called about leasing an 811. The CSR told me they would install a new dish. Yesterday I called again to order it and I was told they would not need a new dish. Will I or not? Seems like a question I should be able to find the answer to pretty easily but I haven't been able to. Thanks

A New Dish will not be needed. You may need a new LNBF, but that's about it.

All depends on where you live and programming. In my area a 811 install would just be a Dish 500 for normal programming. By normal programming I mean AT60 - AEP w/locals out of Raleigh.

The CSR might have thought you needed a wing dish for CBS HD. Depends on where you live.

I live outide of Austin. And I didn't realize they had CBS HD. That would be awesome!
Thanks for your help

In Austin, probably not. I would guess you're in a market where you can't get it via Dish.

I don't think that they will charge you for the dish so I say get it... if the installer comes over and says its not needed he will take it back.

depends on where your locals are. goose - post your zip and I'll check tonight.
