| 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. | | | |
| 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. | | | |
