I am thinking of switching from cable to dish. I have 7 tv’s but could settle for hooking up 6. I only need independent viewing on 4 of the tv’s as they will not all be in use at the same time. I’ve spent alot of time with different reps and I keep getting different stories. If the receivers are hooked into the cable outlets and not the phone lines, can two be split where the cable connections are located(in basement) or does it have to be from the reciever to the next television. (This would be impossible b/c the televisions are too far apart). (Does this affect my cable internet access, which I am keeping?) Direct TV seems to have the best deal for more than 4 televisions, but is a little more expensive for programming. (You have to subscribe to the sports pak just to get FSN which is inlcuded in DISH) Dish said you cannot have more than 4 receivers on 1 dish ?? Also HD question. I have HD DVR with cable company and I get a series of HD channels that include local (ABC, NBC FSN NFL Network, HBO, etc. Both companies said you have to subscribe to HD Programming which includes stations I have never heard of and won’t watch, (Rush, HD net) but not these local stations (Redsox and Patriots). Is this how it works? Why would I want it
