Message: [QUOTE="RockyMTblue2, post: 3277893, member: 250"] Can I come live with you! You lucky guy. Seriously, I am planning the move and will not execute it for a few days. I expect that Dish will disappoint just like DTV, just with some of the same issues and a few quirks of their own. Because of were I live and the penny pinching decision of the developers to not lay hi-speed optic cable down when they put in the electric underground, I have few broadband options, I'm served currently by a repeater on a ridge to the Serah Williams of my home. I pay a pretty penny for 20 Megs down load (max) and a lower upload speed. Our local affilate channels, MT PTV - I can't pick them up here. Matters to the Mrs. but not to me. I get my news on the net and I have nothing but distain for major networks in the endless dumbing down of their programming. We could have it very easily by using a Roku like stick and sending it to the TV of the moment. She's afraid our 20 Meg will degrade with multiple users and we will be looking at something like ESPN+! :p She knows you can have relays and boosters rather easily, but with my daughter's wedding last week and a business trip in the East now she's gotta be carefully wooed, after her major concession to release us as Legacy (read sucker) customers of DTV. I'll report back as I think I know where I'm going. If I can leap over Dish and cut the "cable" cord, I will. But that may be a bridge too far for her. BTW I can get up to 150 Megs, but it costs way too much . High speed fiber cable would have been sweet; then we could fly around all sorts of options and they's all pop flawlessly on the screen until a major lightning strike and we'd be on the list for dig, cut, splice! Maybe I'll look for an independent, cheap, reliable consultant and let he or she plan it out. If they can get discounts on equipment needs and will give us a big chunk of it, that can pay this/her fee. This is where we live shot yesterday; our view of the valley floor is intentionally minimalized by those pesky ridges. Pure spite. [ATTACH type="full"]46559[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
