Oct 8th 2008 9:19PM I do installs for Dish in San Antonio. Give these folks a call. 1-877-643-3474 Promo Code# AM5967 Even if you don't live in the San Antonio, they should be able to get you a better deal than if you call Dish directly.
DISH Network loses 25,000 net subscribers in Q2, sees revenue increase {Engadget HD}
Aug 5th 2008 4:47PM I do installs for Dish in San Antonio and it has been really slow almost all year. Right after the NFL playoffs it has slowed down big time. It picked up a little bit here and there and now we're having a shortage on the 625/522 recievers right now so that doesn't help things. Hopefully things start to pick up here soon. Although, I had heard the other markets here in Texas have been doing well. I'm not sure whats going on down here.
