Thanks for the responses. Wife is calling today to get some more questions answered. Good points RH. We have Time Warner out here in Idaho. Can't say I have been unhappy with the service; just that every year the price takes a huge jump. In the past my wife has been able to talk them down; but this time they were only willing to drop the price by $20 if we incorporated a landline phone into the deal.

Snow can be an issue out here so the advice on the bigger dish is a good one; the wife will check that out when she calls today.

Thanks.

Mike
