I have dish network and do not need two seperate receivers to obtain local channels.

I have dish and only need 1 dish to get my locals. I'm about 6 or 7 miles north of New Town.

called dish and they said I needed 2 dishes one for local and one for regular satelite tv.   Direct says only 1 dish  both of the locals come 150 miles from Bismarck

Anyone else have to have 2 on dish

If you go with DirecTV, let me know I have some coupons where if you sign up, you and I would both get $100 in bill credits. Also, I only have one dish with DirecTV and I live in Bismarck.

the dish guy just left in the van I told him to check again and he said that I needed 2 little dishes because of the area  ne trees or anything else except barren snow covered grain fields

never heard of it. do you know of anyone else in your area with dish? ask them.

He is sticking it to ya, two dishes....never heard of such nonsense

 Was his van a GM?  Serves you right.

What purpose would it serve to have 2 dish's?  Was he going to reverse a splitter to run a single coax line to the receiver since the Rx has only one coax input?  Makes absolutely no sense. 

2 dishes goes into a little retangle box then a single coax goes into the house he said it was needed for local channels only that is why I asked. everyone with direct tv have 1 little grey dish..  He said that the direct dish is different than the dish I don't see any difference it would have to be just the reciever that is different.not the dish

I had Dish Network w/ locals until Feb.  One dish.
Now I have DirecTV w/ locals   One dish. 
Only problem is no local FOX, so I have an digital ant.  which also come sin handy whenever a modest cloud comes by.

I am in Mandan.
