Shiju, thanks very much for that info. Your information is useful, and
we'll relay it forward.

What's sad is that, despite the rage against USA Dish expressed by
some, those who have been the most vocal in demanding action seem least
willing to step forward with some basic answers:

1) Did anybody (other than Shiju and David) attempt to call Roddy in the
last 24 hours?

2) Did anybody else hear from Roddy or anybody else from USA Dish
today, whether to set up an appointment or to at least establish
contact?

Roddy promised Echostar that he would contact people he had on his
service list, that he would be accessible, and that he would be on-site
today. We have no way of knowing unless people tell us. If people
don't tell us, then we have no complaints to send foward.

We desparately need this information to forward to Echostar/Dish. If
people want changes, they have to make at least a minimal effort to
give us something to work with, and the information requested for today
is critical!!

Jim
