    2 Questions about BBMP

    Guess I need OTA setup

    Not sure if my Fox local (WDBD Jackson, MS) will make the cut or not. Can anyone recommend a good antenna for me to get. My nearest Fox affiliate is 1 hr away in Alexandria, LA. Can I get a table top setup from Radio Shack or the Mart, or do I need a Nasa on a pole setup?

    New appreciation of Dish.

    I just bought a new Visio LCD 1080p 42" with 120hz refresh. The 60hz refresh was $100 cheaper but I heard it makes a difference so I spent extra for the 120. It was a Hell Mart special. Plugged it in with an HDMI and WOW!!!!!!! I was missing so much with the dinosaur I had. The picture is...

    Quick question

    If you upgrade to America Everything Pack, do you still get some kind of fee discount? I thought they waived something for you with that pack. CSR on chat told me no fees waived anymore.

    PQ

    So several people on here will argue that D* has better PQ than Dish? I haven't noticed any difference, but I don't have the latest//greatest flat screen tv either. What are your thoughts? PS---Still a fan of Dish. Not a hater.

    Who is to blame for program info?

    Is it just me or do other people have crappy program info in their guide? They could tell you if a movie is a comedy or drama or horror, etc without having to watch it or figure it out for yourself. Also when my DVR is set to record NEW episodes of a show, why does it record shows from years...

    So how's everyone digging the NFL REDZONE CHANNEL?

    I for one love it. Not a big sports fan. Saints and RZ pip is awesome. Also like not spending tons of $$$$$$$ for Sunday Ticket like I had to do with Directv.
