Trumpy,
I have DirecTV, 18" dish.
Reception:
East and West coast CBS, NBC, ABC, and FOX Networks
3 ESPN's, History, Discover, Nickleodian, etc. About 50 channels total. All the usual free stuff(lots of evangelical channels--Benny Hinn the faith healer, in Spanish, is even better than a dubbed over Kung Fu movie!)
12 Encore and Starz channels---$extra
7 HBO channels---$extra
about 100 pay-per-view channels
Cost about $60/month
I think its highway robbery(there is no competition due to Gov/FCC geographical license system) but where I live it's the only way to get more than two or three channels...
I installed it myself.
I'm hoping "Wild Blue" is successful with its internet satellite system(delayed until 2004?). ADSL is 2 -3 years or more off here in the rural parts of northern NH.
