im getting dish network tomorrow, im getting a subcription until the fta hds becomes more feasible and readily available. i figure i get the dish 1000.2 for free and use my current dish 500 for bell.
Good for you, just beware that DN has some hidden charges. Review very careful your statements.
FTAs are working very well for testing. Pansat, Viewsat, Cool*sat boxes have been reported in these posts to be working steady and without major problems.
actually im still keeping my fta im only getting dish hd because it cheaper to get the subcription than paying $475 for viewsat 9000hd. im only keeping the sub for a couple months
I don't think yo can do just 2 months Read your contract The dish will be yours so it is a good value I would also ask for a free DVR It will be your best way to record HD games, news etc. I would also ask them to install an OTA HD antenna for Additional $50 yo'll save $5 a month of local programs this way yo'll always have HD broadcast
Also consider Cable TV with Free DVR More HD programs than any other provider i/o (Interactive Optimum) They got an agressive package (Internet, Phone and Cable TV all 3 for $90)
yeah off course i wont let my fta equipment lay around but yeah i can do as many months as i wont i refuse the 18 months subcription so basically im in a month basis. ive been talking to them and going over everything.
