| Q: | "If I live in an apartment or condo can I still get a dish?" | | A: | In most cases, yes, if you have a balcony. The law requires that your landlord must give you permission. FCC rules permit residents of rental property to install a satellite dish, but only in certain areas. | | | |
| Q: | "Do I have to choose my programming right now?" | | A: | No. If you are not sure of which packages you desire, you can simply choose the basic programming package for now. You'll then have time to consider your options. Just keep in mind that you'll have to decide before the installer comes to your home. | | | |
| Q: | Will I get an HDTV signal? | | A: | No, but you will receive a PURE DIGITAL signal which is completely distortion-free. The quality of your signal is so high that it is equivalent to a DVD. This signal will look incredible on ANY television, including HDTVs. | | | |
