What is that? A local provider?

I'm in the same boat - going to be moving out of the Verizon FIOS area and need to get one of the two.
The Dish guide was confusing, and I didn't see TVG. But if you can get both, that might be the deal.
Plus I think you can order the Roberts Simucast package for like 59.00 a month and get the exact same simulcast feed as the otb's on Dish.

My bad on DISH not having TVG. I was obviously wrong

ditto what the two above me stated. I have to spend an extra $10/month for the sports package that includes tvg/hrtv and a busload of regional sports networks that i never watch.

u-verse is att's version of fios. same concept. if it's available where you live, it's a good alternative.

Thanks so much for all of the information. I will check on the ATT program. Does it have all of the regular programming as well?

Yes. They have an online tool available to see if you can get it.
