Hmm...Some of those links that I posted some time ago in the AVS Forum are now dead.
....Anyway, I'm quite convinced that the CDN mini-dish systems are now better value than their US cousins....(yes I did have DirecTv for four years)
i.e......E+W US Nets + locals from across Canada for all subs
........100 audio channels....US Fms, CDN FM's+ 40 commercial free(*Choice)
.......newschannels galore(CNN, Headline News, CTV NewsNet, CBC Newsworld, MSNBC, BBC World, CNBC+ROBTV) (*Choice)
......excellent picture quality.
.....5.1 DD sound on movie channels
......zero rain fade(*Choice):hi:
