In the process of moving houses, one of the parts on my HD dish broke off. Is it OK if i glue it back?

Only the stick part broke off, the wires can still be connected.

Doesn't DTV give you a free dish when you move? I've seen ads about moving and they will give you a new dish and install it.

Directv just has you pack up your boxes, you leave the dish behind and they install a new one.

No, you just have to call them, and tell them you moved.

It's toast. Call Directv or buy a dish on ebay. I recently purchased a new Slimline HD dish on ebay for 75 bucks inc. shipping. A new dish from solid signal is 112 bucks for the dish and shipping.

LNB arms can be replaced, so it's not quite toast. However, since his pic is of an old 3LNB dish, I would replace the whole thing with a 5LNB Slimline. If the OP really did move, it would be free for him.

As already mentioned, just call DirecTV, tell them you moved, and you'll get all new equipment (besides the DVRs/receivers).

If for some reason that doesn't work, I recently canceled DirecTV HD, and I can sell you my dish. I need to get that ugly thing off my roof anyways.
