[KG4KBU]

I am wanting to switch to directv but I would perfer to buy my equipment out right 1.how much is it ?.. "the equipment"

Would I be in a contract ? Also I want the preferred Choice pack for 32.99 a month can I do that ? Then one more thing I would like to keep dish network also for the welcome pack for another TV so I want to keep my dish located on the dish network bird do u think directv could install another satellite for their service ? what about them installing the equipment would it be free to do that or would I have to pay?

Also how is the rain fade dropouts compared to DISH NETWORK ?

You would have DirecTV install a dish for their service. No reason to have the DishNet dish removed.

With a properly aligned dish, I see now reason you would have more rain fade then with dish. Possibly less.

As for commitments, you'll need to call DirecTV.

Most equipment is leased. If you find equipment to buy outright, it'll be expensive.

You need to be more specific on "equipment" a D12 is much cheaper than an HR21PRO and a 18" dish is cheaper than a 5LNBSWM.
