For 6 months, then $44.99. Not so bad but it doesn't have my local channels.

"Powered by Kiwisat" for the tv channels. I believe these guys are only around Florida, and a few states around there. Not U.S. wide.

Would be interesting to see if it works nationwide, but I don't feel like paying the $20 to try

Their satellite footprint was Florida, the SW, Mexico and the Caribbean, but they recently ended satellite service completely

Looking further into this, there is no app availability for use with Roku, AppleTV, Firestick. You order service and they send you a device to use with it. You need a device for each TV apparently.

I just played with setup and see the first receiver is free, up to 3 more at $5 each a month.

Have a hard time swallowing ESPN for such a low price!

Website now says their service area is the "Contiguous 48 US states and Puerto Rico."

As well as Starz, MGM, Showtime. Seems too good to be true for $20/month.

Starz, MGM, Showtime, HBO, etc, are extra charge. They are available for a price added to that $20.

I created a username/password. Here are screenshots of the cost breakdowns.

For my ZIP code it says I would receive Miami and Puerto Rico locals (not sure how that's legal, but whatever!)

ABC Miami
ABC PR
CBS Miami
NBC Miami
NBC PR
Telemundo Miami
WAPA PR (Superstation?)
PBS Miami
WIPR PR
CW Miami

Looks like locals are included in both the Latino and Signature packages.

Apparently you can get Paramount+ Premium as an add-on for $10/month, which is cheaper than getting it directly from Paramount+

Lord only knows what "VOD" for $7.00/month is. Boobie flix?

The proprietary box/receiver is a $60 one-time fee. No idea what the hardware is.

Probably a packet sniffer that watches all the other network traffic on your home network and launches DDoS attacks for a fee.

The ESPN is probably the Cable ESPN or ESPN+ ...

If a deal seems too good to be true, it almost certainly is a scam, a high-risk trap, or a deceptive offer designed to steal your money or personal information.
