I was able to renew annual with Mint at the $15/mo. rate. I don't approach the base data cap month-to month.

Plus a box at every set

Yes, exactly, they are going to the home to set cx's up with mobile service. Presumably it's a full service like with setting up sat- programming phones, downloading apps, teaching use. Whether this would extend to in-home aftercare, IDK. As far as DiSH installers pushing ancillary items, that's...

Right, what have they ever done to you

It actually was never named or called Apollo 1 pre-fire. The fatal training exercise was later given that designation so that the guys would have an actual "mission" that they died on. This is another example of how as Americans we're lousy at foreseeing and preventing calamity but good at...

There's barely weather anymore on TWC as it is....except for like "world's wickedest weather"....

If you're on Verizon you're not going to have good service in one state or city and not others. I tried Twigby (which uses Verizon) and there was no notable difference. I then switched to Mint because Twigby could not do Canada or Europe, plus it was even cheaper. Mint doesn't charge extra for...

I never found that compelling. DiSH offered that fairly early on. I think they thought everyone was like them and sports-addled

DiSH is outdated

What is DV and why do (or don't) I want it?

Is it "qualifying programming"?
