I now own a Direct TV dish ...now what?

Have done this a few times. I seriously doubt anyone will want it. There are maybe 4 on my dock that are unused. When we moved in the current home, I dug down about 2” to the top of the concrete and cut the pole off with a sawzall.....

I did the same thing. I was tired of getting ripped off every month. The only bad thing now is I’m stuck watching liberal news.

 

Now that’s redneck!

 

Indeed. Now I understand why some lawns look like they do.

 

I attached an over-the-air antenna to the front of my dish when I unplugged. Even used the coax they left to connect it to the house. Best thing DirectTV ever did for me

 

But, for the record, blowing it up would be the most logical thing to do in 2020...

 

You will finally hear some truths for once.

 

OMG! Like no evidence of voter fraud? Let’s not even go there!

 

At the closing of my last home, I told the buyers that I was leaving the dish for them. I think they rolled their eyes.

 

I wish our old dish was in the ground in NY they mount them on your roof it’s been there for over 10 years and I hate it.

 

I am about to unplug myself, I have been in reactivation purgatory for over a month getting a new sim card activated. so far I have had two sim cards and two servers fedexed to the house and have spent over six hours on the phone with techs and I still do not have a replacement working. I am researching other wireless carriers to finally cut the cord completely with AT&T. Ive been a loyal customer for 25 years but finally gotta say I'm done. Does anyone use T-Mobile and their Tvision service? Supposedly its pretty popular out in Nor Cal.

we just left TMobile cell plan after years of service we started experiencing dropped calls no service so my experience with T-Mobile is not a good one. we have a Verizon gigabit fiber line at home now and it’s awesome on average we have 33 devices on the network and no buffering

 

Thanks, Verison is on my short list to vet as well.

I have a Direct TV dish on the roof and a new one in the box in the garage. When I moved here in 2004 the installer just used the old one and left the new one behind.

I finally dumped them last year and that in itself was hard. They were like a tick that wouldn’t let go. I get “we miss you” mailers from them weekly with offers no better than what was there before.

Trouble is that internet is sparse here. My previous DSL provider was providing less and less and charging more and more so they got the boot too.

Now there’s a Hugesnet dish cemented on a pole in my front yard and despite the assurances of the hot girl walking around in the commercial, the service stinks.

Streaming is tedious at times but with country life comes comprise.

 

Simple. You now have a nifty bird bath.

 

I have Verizon at home and getting ready to cut the cord... Just not sure what to do either.... How does everyone watch tv, shows, News, movies... Gonna cancel everything but Wifi I guess... Paying 300 a month for 4 boxes and all channels... Just way too much!!!!!
