Thanks for the replies. I have been trying to get Direct TV installed since the end of June. They have not bothered to show up for two different appts. No call either, very, very irritating. I called Dish on Sunday, when Direct TV failed to show for 2nd time and they are supposed to come install it tomorrow. If Dish shows, then their service is WAY superior to Direct TV. I was just wondering if anyone had any problems with either one like the one I have been experiencing.

, or even if there were many "outtages" because of weather. I am tired of just having 3 channels

Wish me luck that tomorrow night, I will be flipping channels like a mad woman.
