| fargus's Full Review: Hughes Networks D2532 DIRECTV |
Okay, here's the real deal. The dish is good, but at $129, you're getting robbed. Sure, you could go to any electronics shop and pick it up for that price. I'm not an affiliate for Blockbuster Video at all, but the honest truth is, you can get a quality dish there for $49. OH! And that includes installation. You won't find a better deal anywhere. One dish and one receiver and one remote. One receiver means you can only watch the programing on one TV. The dish with two prongs (Dual LNB)allows you to be able to split the input and set it to two TVs(unfortunately, you'll have to watch the same program on both TVs)I suggest(if you're an entertainment freak like myself)getting a receiver for each television. It's a little pricier but i think its well worth it. And have a problem once you get it installed?? Forget it! I once dialed six numbers and each person gave me three more numbers to dial! It was a hassle so if you dont plan on having any problems with your dish(not programing problems, because the people there are quick) you have nothing to fear! So go forth, and don't get robbed! It's a jungle out there!
