Greetings Everyone,
I am very comfortable with all the workings and non-workings of DirecTV, however, i am now getting into the Echostar world. If anyone one has common problems/solutions, issues, nuances, ANYTHING that i will see in the Echostar world, please comment. Sorry this is so vague. Again, i am very knowledgeable with satellite in general and DirecTV in particular....I'm just looking for a heads- up.

Thanks for anything you may contribute!!

Have you searched this forum? That is where I would start.

Too general. Much has changed industry-wide in the last few years.

Did you know that Echostar (SATS) and DISH Network (DISH) are separate companies? DISH Network contracts with Echostar for hardware and satellite services.

I haven't been out of the industry by any means. believe me, i know that technology changes constantly in this business. I am just new to DISH. Yes I know that Echostar and DISH are separate. I have been involved in the training and design of some of the premier DirecTV systems.

thanks for looking and keep it coming

Well, how about the 1¢ Cinemax deal. Don't subscribe to Cinemax or agree to paperless or online billing before you ask about that deal.

thanks. I'll try to clarify. i'm looking more for installation and distribution issues than for programming concerns..sorry for the vague inquiry
