| 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: | 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. | | | |
| Q: | "Can I check my account status online?" | | A: | You may view your current or previous billing statements, add services, or make payments to your account online. Keep in mind that our Free installation offer requires that you agree to automatic monthly billing on your credit card. | | | |
