I hope we don't get three channels. We need ONE channel, not one more!

I've had Dish Network since the end of September without a single incident of losing signal cause of weather.

Ditto... when we had DirectTV, we only lost signal a couple of times and it actually survived 3 hurricanes without a single incident of signal loss. I'm pissed that I'm stuck with cable now.

I switched from cable to Dish over 2 years ago and I can count on one hand the number of times that I lost the signal. If I do lose the signal it is because a thunderstorm is right over my house and the signal is back in a couple of minutes. If you are a horse racing fan and are able to get Dish you owe it to yourself to do so. I would never want to go back to my days before Dish. Between the two horse racing channels I can see virtually every big race live. The other day my door bell rang and it was a salesman from the cable company trying to get me to re-subscribe. I told him they would never have me as a customer until they offered me HRTV and TVG. That usually stops their sales pitch.

losing the signal is greatly exaggerated if you ask me. I never lose my signal. the only time I have ever lost a signal was when they installed the dish in the winter right behind a tree that, of course, bloomed in the spring. Since they put the dish in a spot free of obstructions, I have NEVER lost a signal. Those that I know that have lost their signal have said it goes out for a few seconds and comes back momentarily.

so is part of the basic package for dish. cause i have cox comm. and they charge extra for tvg and don't offer hrtv. which costs me 129.00 a month cause i have to have ditigal cable to get it.
