Okay, so at the end of August our 4 year old Direct tv DVR box went kaput.  So for signing on for another 2 years, I got free, new equipment.  Finally, we’d now have not one, but two dvr boxes! 

Well, the guy came out (I’ll be there by 2, shows at 8 – yes, p.m.) And did his thing.  We’ve had issues ever since.  So Direct tv, after a weeks worth of trouble shooting over the phone, finally sent someone else out.

In walks…RON THE CABLE GUY.  Well, let me just say that Ron was (1.) Raised well…he wore those shoe booties in the house.  Very nice, and (2.) Is the only one within the entire county who knows what he is doing.

It took him all of 1 minute to figure out where the problem was and less than an hour to fix it.  Turns out, the original guy, taped over frayed cable from the dish to the outside box.  And one main line had exposed wires and just barely connected.  Duh. 

I seriously think that Ron should be training cable/dish people.  I can’t tell what company he works for from the paperwork I signed, but maybe if he reads this blog, he’ll post that in the comments.  I, for one, will never use another service company other than this one.  And I certainly wouldn’t recommend any other.

And yes, Ron if you happen to read this, it is a little creepy to see yourself on someone’s blog but at least I’m posting something good, rather than bad!
