    First time satellite subscriber - what to expect?

    We're moving to a new home and I'm disgusted with Comcast's offering, so I'm planning to go Dish. Couple of questions: The home is new construction with two coax lines run from each room to an A/V closet. The builder didn't terminate anything, so all the (bare) coax lines are just bundled...
