I just put in my order, and an installer will be coming Thursday. But yeah, I used to run a BUD business in the late 80's/early 90's. Pizza pans are a breeze to set up, compared to a big BUD, where you have to track the arc from horizon to horizon, with a very narrow beamwidth. Many more...

I remember Primestar... My neighbor had one, right across the yard from my 12' Unimesh XL. I think he had a serious case of dish envy! :D

Can the protection plan be added later, like maybe a year or two after starting service? Thanks for the replies, I think I have a much clearer understanding now.

I wouldn't be too happy if I got an old (and from what I've read, problematic) HR20. I would be ordering it from the D* website, if that makes any difference... Can I get them to make a commitment on one? I was hoping to use one of the composite outputs to go to composite input on a VCR...

I am about ready to pull the trigger and order a DTV package (CHOICE XTRA + HD DVR), and have a couple questions. I have a new 50" plasma in the living room, and two old SD TV's in the bedrooms. What model HD-DVR is being sent out to new orders now? Since the new DTV HD-DVR's have dual tuners...

I think the easiest way is to have a a/v video card. I have an ATI 9600 All In Wonder card, which has audio/video in and out (coax, composite, S-video and DVI), as well as a TV tuner. I can use my hard drive as a DVR, and burn to DVD's (no copywrited material, of course! ;)), as well as send...

Not half as glad as me!!! :) Thanks again for the heads up!

Thanks for shedding light on this to me, guys! I didn't read the fine print... I guess I might as well pay the deposit. I'm still used to the TVRO (big dish) way of doing things, I have much to learn, it seems! Mark

Why would they require a deposit, if I owned the equipment? If I was late on a payment, they would just shut off my programming. They certainly wouldn't be out $300. It seems to me that the programming should be cheaper, if I'm not leasing equipment from them. As to where I'd get the...

Last week I finally pulled the trigger, and bought my first HDTV. I have been using a TVRO/4DTV system for years, and while it provides an outstanding SD picture, and a lot of channels for a really good price, it has little to offer in the way of HDTV. I like DTV's packages and available...
