Dish network advise?

by lingChange Jul 16, 2009 8:26AM PDT

I contracted with Dish network for a HD setup. They come this Sunday for the installation.

Is there anything I should be sure to ask or look out for, in other words any advise you guys can give?

Have to supply the HDMI or conposite cable or they will just use S-line.

If they have too install a 2nd dish where your at and you live in an area where it snows makesure they put the second dish where you can clean the snow off easy... They put my second dish on the roof and it is a pain in the neck to clean, even having a plastic bag over it only does so much. Also they will be coming in and out a lot so if you have any nice throw rugs pick them up ahead.

And give them something cold to drink... It is going to be hot.

Sounds like very sound advise, I'll take it.
