Tuesday with TV
Its all done, pics tomorrow though. The installer got here and with the tripod up he found the satellite. We then discussed what I wanted done and he got it done. I had the DVR put in the bedroom and a wire run down and behind the drawers on the back wall. I had a hole drilled and a bulkhead fitting installed to access the tripod. DW has her own tv satellite and a DVR.
In the front, we had the King-Dome already getting a signal from the satellite and the tv running, but we were not activated. Nothing was done here but will be later. I have a 50 foot wire to use for the tripod when we cant use the K-D. I will do a similar arrangement in front as was done in the back. All this to use the tripod.
After all this, there was nothing to watch. We did not get any pay movie channels, HBO, etc. Just to much money. We will go to the movie rental store if necessary. There are enough free movie channels to watch vs paying to see some of the same. Besides, the movies we have to watch today are mostly terrible. We went with the total choice plus plan at $45.99 plus the adder for the DVR. With all the taxes, I am looking for a $70 bill monthly. The price of a little luxery.
