Best Packages

I love DISH for many reasons. They've always been there when I called in any problems. They're sending out a receiver out to me because my daughter's television doesn't work in 2-3 days. I also love it because they have the games for my daughter to play and she loves those. And they just give good service and I've never had a problem with them at all. I enjoy DISH and all the channels that they give me.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you install DISH satellite dishes and receivers?: We do not install the satellite dishes ourselves. We have partnered with a nationwide network of licensed DISH installers who will be happy to install your satellite dish. These installers conform to all industry standards, ensuring that you will receive a quality installation from a certified, insured company. You will even receive a 90-day warranty with your installation.
The installer will bring the DISH receivers to your home when they come to install your satellite dish. They will help you connect the receivers to your satellite dish, but depending on the connection that you want, you may be responsible for connecting it to your TV. Most basic connections can be completed by the installer, but they may not have more expensive or advanced cabling.
Is there a warranty available for DISH equipment?: There is a service plan available for DISH equipment called the DISH Service Plan. It is currently $6/month and offers coverage like full replacement of broken receivers, power surge protection, and video cable replacement. Learn more about DISH Service Plan by calling DISH at 1-800-823-4929.
How does DISH billing work?: You can sign up for automatic payments, pay your bill with cash with select services, pay with credit or debit card, or pay by check. Details on all of these payment methods can be found on DISH’s site. Sterling Satellite is unable to process payments for DISH service.
Are local channels included in DISH packages?: Yes, almost all DISH packages now include local channels! DISH now also offers local channels to the entire United States.
Where can I find out what’s on DISH? Is there a program guide?: Yes. All receivers come equipped with a program guide that shows you show titles, channels, and air times. You'll always be able to find what you're looking for with this easy to use guide.
Just press the “Guide” button on your remote. This will bring up the programming guide, giving you access to tons of information about the great shows that can be seen on DISH, now and in the future.
You can check out the programming guide, get emails from DISH, or see Sterling Satellite's daily guide on What to Watch on DISH!
Why is there a phone line connected to my DISH receiver?: Connecting a phone line to your DISH receiver allows your programming guide to update more frequently and gives you the ability to order pay-per-view programming directly from your receiver.
What can interfere with my satellite signal?: The most likely culprit would be the weather. Sometimes snow, ice, or heavy rain may cause a momentary disruption in satellite signal strength. However, DISH boasts a 99% signal reliability rating that ensures you can watch what you want, when you want!
Over time, you may also find that trees have grown and have blocked some of your downlink signal from being received. If this is the case, simply trim back the trees’ branches and your signal will be as strong as the day your satellite was installed.
How do I control closed captioning?: Closed captioning can be activated by entering the "Settings" menu on your receiver. You can choose between CC1 and CC2, which offer different feeds of closed captioning for some programming.
