Thread: what do I need to make this happen?

Thanks for all the info LaddyBoy!!! I was reading in another thread that I can lease equipment and get it all, plus install, for $99 activation with no contract....If that is the case I might go with that, so long as I can get installation from my local retailer, not the clowns that came from Dallas last time, and so long as they will leave my existing equipment alone, because I will use it for FTA if I don't need it for dish service....

Right now I don't have an HD TV, so that isn't as big a concern, but it's nice to have the option to add it later when we get a new TV. I come across D500 systems regularly, so adding another dish for the HD wouldn't be a problem. I had a dual tuner receiver with a separator before, so I only have one cable coming from the dish...

However, if I start service, then do an online change of address to a Tyler addy, my locals suddenly change to Tyler.....go figure...... Anyways, I have an HD off-air antenna...

I don't know why Dish does not know what your locals are...must have gotten a dense CSR. You're in western arc, so you would want a 1000.2 for a one dish solution. Tyler, TX Dish Network Local Channels

Henderson County is in the SE corner of the Dallas market, adjacent to the Tyler market. Dish is offering you the "right" locals. Thank our friends at Nielsen and the NAB.
