    211 As OTA Tuner?

    I just thought it was weird, because I wasn't using any aspect of their service, just my local airwaves. That would be your 911 service on an unactivated cell phone, imho.

    211 As OTA Tuner?

    We cancelled our service last year with dish, but we still have an old 211 receiver with an ota tuner. I went to hook it up to the antenna, and I got a message saying my receiver's HD service wasn't activated. What gives? Why do I have to pay to use the OTA tuner in MY equipment?

    New XM Lineup

    Contrary to what most others are saying about the changes, I have to admit that I do like what they did. We just bought a new car (came with XM) and in our minivan we had sirius.

    VOOM on Uverse?

    I was browsing the AT&T Utalk forums and noticed this post from what I assume is an AT&T employee. I don't know how credible it is, but I just wanted to pass it on. Voom HD Networks + HD VOD + Subscription VOD + 1080p movies by end of 1Q2009 - TV Programming - U-talk Peer-to-Peer Forums

    Trial Period?

    After I place an order for directv service and it's installed, is there a period that I can cancel if I decide I don't like it? Without breaking my contract?

    Before I Consider Switching to DirecTV...

    I'm aware of the illegalities of "moving", but I just wanted to know if it's as simple to do as it is with dish network.

    superstation package and WSBK

    I kind of like that idea of mapping them down to the local channel range, as long as they don't interfere with my current local channels. For example, if I lived in Chicago and KTLA and WMAQ were both on channel 5, that wouldn't work out.
