If Off Topic; Please Re-direct Me....
ALL I WANT IS SPEEDVISION TV WITHOUT CABLE. I HAVE HDTV; SO SOME OF THAT WOULD BE NICE., I'M IN SANTA ANA, CALIFORNIA. I'VE TRIED VOOM BUT THEIR LOCAL CONTRACTED INSTALLER MAKES ME FEEL MORE CAPABLE THAN I HAVE ANY RIGHT TO.
SINCE THE VOOM FUTURE IS IFFY; I TRIED IT FOR SIX MONTHS ONLY, AND AND STILL CAN'T GET DECENT SIGNAL IN RAIN OR WIND. THE LARGER MESH DISHES SOUND GOOD, BUT THREE FEET IS ONE THING; TEN FEET ANOTHER!
SO, IF I CAN PAY TO RECEIVE SPEEDVISION AND A FEW HD OTHERS, IS THERE AN OPTION BETWEEN C BAND AND PIZZA DISHES THAT WOULD ALLOW ME TO GET A LA CARTE PROGRAMMING WHERE I LIVE?
THE C BAND FORUM HAS 'DROPPING BELOW 250,000" A LA VOOM. THAT IS, I DON'T WANT TO INVEST IN A DISH SYSTEM THAT MAY LOSE SPEED VISION LIKE HISTORY CHANNEL, ETC. THANKS FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE.
