[QUOTE=&quot;MyBud, post: 2424, member: 426&quot;]Last StrawI've had a BUD (big ugly dish) for most of my adult life and in fact still watch the 4 channels left broadcasting in analog. I never had decent reception from an antenna and the whole DTV thing is even worse so I've been trying to make a decison about which direction to go; DishNet, Direct, get a mega rooftop antenna, stop watching TV (not a chance in you know where!). This pretty much decides it for me. I'm going to spend my money on upgrading to a 4DTV receiver and tune up my big dish. The programming providers and options are much better and a LOT cheaper. It seems the primary shortcoming of 4DTV offerings is the lack of some sports channels, which doesn't hinder me in the least. I've talked to a lot of people who switched to dinky-dish and they aren't as happy with the quality and stability of the picture but switched either because they could get the dinky-dish free (ain't no free lunches folks, read the fine print) or 4DTV didn't offer a specific channel they wanted. Anybody out there have a 4DTV receiver (DSR922)they'd like to part with?[/QUOTE]
