Satellite TV
 

I know this question is not about amateur radio, but here goes anyway.
Which is better Direct TV or Dish Network ?
A few years ago some guys on 75 meters were talking about it and they
thought Direct TV had better programming but I recently talked to someone
who said they tried both and thought that Dish Network has better
programming.
I plan to subscribe to one or the other in the very near future , any
thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I haven't had any problems with Directv! I will never switch!

I agree....I have had Directv for over 5 years now. NEVER A PROBLEM, NEVER
A GLITCH. Want to make a programming change? Call them up. It is done
before you hang up.

Customer service is excellent. Picture quality is superb. More programming
than you can believe and they will be doing full HDTV soon. I love it.

Because I value the opinion of my fellow amateur radio operators more than
someone's opinion who just likes to watch TV.
I know there are newsgroups about almost any subject.
I hope my posting it here didn't ruin your day.

No, it didn't ruin my day. However, you're more likely to find someone who has
experienced both of the services you seek info on over there than in this
group.
