how much do they cost? I would like to learn about them. Satellite phones are that thing that you see in the movies that was so cool, but no one has one or knows about them.

I did not include the green link under D*'s name above.

Yes, you want HD ready. At the rate receiving technology changes, HD ready is far better then CableCard 1 or ATSC built-in. It is ALWAYS easier to change out an external tuner, rather then the entire TV. ~The 921 is a discontinued peice of junk, to word it simply. If its HD you want, and an HD...

Wow, Thanks Gregg. I didn't think you would reply, as I had forgotten you were a member of this forum.

There is a big price range, my 34" Sony XBR CRT is going to cost $275 total.

So he doesn't give discounts for being a member of anything (maybe not forums?)? I understand he is worth every cent, but that is still alot of money to put into something that is going to go down in value as fast as a TV does. Thanks for your help so far, both of you!

Hello. I am considering getting Gregg Loewen over to ISF my HDTV. I was wondering if anyone knows if he gives discounts to forum members, like many online electronics retailers do? Thank you to all who reply!

I don't see where he asked about internet??? :confused: do you? Directway reception is totally different then DirecTV reception. Switch to DirecTV, you will be very happy. None of the receivers have to be connected to the phone line, besides the first dial in. You are always better off...

I admit it, I don't really know much about FTA. I have really never looked into it. I thought that since it was free-to-air that the broadcasters didn't pay anything. why would their be so many channels if each station had to pay that much?

how would FTA cost so much? The electrical bill to broadcast up onto a satellite maybe? Don't tell me you have to pay for space on a FTA certified satellite (made-up term)???

Try to make a deal with your local cable company. You have got to try to team up with a satellite provider. Have you thought of C-Band, or you could even try putting the channel on free-to-air until it really takes off. If you don't have the signal up on at leat one satellite, then how are...

no bids to far!

Are these 5 mega dish's located at his house? That what it looks like. These are what XM uses to broadcast their channels up to the satellite's. Why would anyone want them for personal use? He forgot to mention that you have to supply the concrete base on each one.

no, it should just become 100% CNNI

no wonder, how did they think they could compete with CNBC? Most cable systems carry CNNfn on the digital tier, while CNBC is carried on basic analog cable (which many more people subscribe to) alongside the other news networks.

already answered your question in the DirecTV forum. I hope you read it and find it helpful.

A splitter is to cable TV, as a stacker/destacker is to satellite TV.

It all depends on your area!!!! No one who is not is your local area on your local cable system can tell you it is better or not. PQ varies a ton depending on what region you are in, even if it is the same cable company.

please vote!

Charper1 is making an accurate comparison on the same monitor, and I'm sure many others do also.

There are quite a few people who have tried all 3 providers. You do not need to try all 3 to vote for any of the combined options, such as Voom And DirecTV or Dish and Voom. This only requires two.
