I am going to get D*, what do I need to know before buying?

[miguelaqui]

I am very upset with E*. They advertised a channel for a particular price, someone from the Exec. Office told me that I could have it for that price, then someone else says NO.

DVR fee or not, I'm leaving!

First of all, Do I really have any reason for installing a dish for the 95 sat? Are there any future plans for 95? My locals are on 119, will there be any future need in having 72.5?

What is the current DVR? The R10 with 70 hours which is a dual tuner DVR?

If I buy my own equipment, does the price vary from retailer to retailer, or is it about the same like E*, the same price everywhere no matter if one say Phillips and the other RCA?

Most of the prices I've seen have the R10 for $99, is that right?

Is there much variation receiver brand?

Is the remote UHF for the R10?

Thanks
