I have a 6 foot dish for satellite television, but now the guy I'm talking to here about getting Direct TV is telling me it's 7,000 pesos for 6 months or 12,000 pesos for one year for the card to connect up for each television!!! (Plus installation fees, of course.) That seems extremely expensive for what I understand is basically "pirated" services. Those of you who are getting Direct TV, is this what you pay? I don't have any U.S. account with Direct TV or DISH since I had switched to Cable in the States and have no way to establish one, either, at this juncture. What about DISH? Is it any cheaper? If anyone has a name and number of someone to contact on the North Coast, it would be appreciated. Thanks for your help.
