| 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: | "Is service available in Canada?" | | A: | No. Service is only available in the continental USA and Hawaii. | | | |
| Q: | "Can I substitute one channel for another in my basic package?" | | A: | We strive to make satellite programming as affordable as possible. One way to help keep costs lower is to provide stations in packages, rather than mostly a la carte. | | | |
