Are you kidding me?
I had the HR20, a standard DVR, and a standard reciever, new installation, done in September. We've had some hella wind over the past couple of weeks, and my dish is out of alignment, because none of my HD channels are working right, nor are many of the movie channels. Sunday ticket was unwatchable this weekend. I'm getting virtual 0 signal strength readings from a couple of the satellites.
The phone rep was nice enough to 'suggest' that I get the insurance so the service call would be free (not $70), and then 'suggested' that I cancel the insurance within 30 days. This is on equipment/installation whose warranty ran out 2 weeks ago (90 days).
Don't believe when DTV says they are cheaper than cable. They sure as hell ain't. Cable doesn't charge anything to come out and fix problems.
I've shelled out about $950 since September (and add $70 for the service call if not for the 'suggestion') for 4 months of TV....that's 11 months worth of Adelphia Digital Cable with an HDTV tuner.
Damned frustrating.
