Sunday Ticket comes to PS3
Those of you who don't want DirecTV, go out and buy a PS3, then shell out another 340 for Sunday Ticket.

Sure you can. Just mount the dish inside your bedroom and remove the screen. Profit.

If Directv wont do the install or your landlord is giving you problems about getting it installed...call a local retailer to try and do the installation. Chances are, they WILL get it done if its at all possible. By rule of the FCC a landlord cannot keep a tennant from getting any type of communication service "just because" ...now, they CAN say that you cant mound it permanently to their building and no holes can be drilled, but there are ways around doing those things like doing a flat cable through window/s and using a pole mount.tripod or non penetrating roof mount to get the installation done. If you have any questions, just pm me. |

Back when i was in an apartment I did it. I grabbed two poles, welded them at a 90 degree and created a cement base to mount it in. Planted the thing on my patio so it went up and over the railing and outward facing the sky. No holes. Not mounted on their building and out of sight unless you're coming from the back of the building.

Really? Only the night of the game? That is stupid. I wanted to watch it at work on Tuesday when I was thinking about picking up a fantasy player. Hmm..

My bad they allow satellite but my location prevents it as there is no clear line of site to the southeast or whichever way the signal is. The only other option was to mount it on the roof of the complex and the landlord said no to that. I'll gladly pay the 340 is this legit? How do I go about it, just call dtv?

They arent that heavy, but they require cinder blocks to keep it from moving when the wind is strong. After the blocks are put in it, it is probably at least that heavy. Ive been an installer and owned mmy own company as a Directv subcontractor at one point and employed 17 installers under me and one thing for sure is there is almost ALWAYS a way to get it done. Local offices usually have a lot of rookie installers working for them and they might not have the knowledge required to get it done sometimes....retailers usually employ more experienced installers and have a lot more riding on getting the install done, so they will usually get it done if the local big office cant. |

Landlords usually like that idea as well, due to the fact they can have one dish service the entire building. We call it a "community dish" and do it that way. It would be very very unlikely a company other than a retailer would do something like that though. If that is not an option, the dish can usually be "post pounded" on the south side of the building and the line tucked under the vinal siding to get to your unit so it is unnoticable and no holes are drilled....the installer would need to bring at least one flat cable though. Just more options for ya to keep the bill low. If I can help, holla at a playa when you see him on Chiefs Planet. |

Just called them it's legit at least according to the representative. It'll be on the website tomorrow. She said it would be stupid to go buy a PS3 and get NFLST. Wow she's probably fired now if they recorded that call lol.
