If you want to get your money's worth from Dish you need to have their so called HD package and a DVR. Their HD movie channels have some great older movies and a fair amount of musical programming. As sort of a bonus we get all of the Sirius music channels and a few others. For another $10/mo we get a second receiver which we use on the boat. |

Besides, once you get used to not having a TV, you really don't seem to miss it. |

I am paying Comcast about $70 for expanded basic, digital starter and HBO. It depends on the package you get and options. Dish ,, the best deal in television. Why is it the best deal in television? Because THEY SAY it is the best deal in television..... |

I have a $3500 automatic tracking antenna on my RV that isn't being used because I'm too cheap to pay for Television. |

I am paying Comcast about $70 for expanded basic, digital starter and HBO. My dish is about $42 a month, no HBO, the station selection sucks for 3 TV's. $5 extra for the 3rd TV. Looked at Comcast. $29.95 for 6 months and then about $60 plus $13.95 for each extra TV from the get go. Direct from Costco has a better station package, but is about $50 a month for my desires. Will go up to about 60 a month after a year, but you can renew at the $35.95 + extra TV's yearly. |
