...and that's just for the premium service without HBO, Showtime, etc. Comcast just sent out a letter of intent to raise rates...again. Three years ago we were paying 35 bucks and every year they raise it. Sometimes I wish I never tore down that roof antenna.

Cable is a monopoly. Comcast owns Delaware. I also recieved a "rate increase" notice in the mail for Christmas... Thanks Comcast.

matt, has your box even been blocked? I know with DSS and hacked cars people get zapped all the time and have to clean and reprogram the card.

I know the Box doesnt have a card. Was just describing how the dss dishes are done.
I thought they could tell is a cable box was tampered with also buy somehting they call sending a bullet back and forth through the line..

they have really begun to crack down on the dishes, a friend of mine was buring cards they would last a few weeks now she can only get a couple days out of them.

We had bought a dish one time and kept burning the cards but like you said we got zapped like every other day. It wasnt worth it so we returned it and went back the the box. You can ask saw about it. It works well ;)

:haha:
last year, when we went to chicago.... we were watching 2 fast 2 furious. my cousin andy had the remote, and he was flipping channels on the cable receiver....
he turned to some channel, i think it was a music video or something. 10 seconds later, on the same channel, the music video became a softcore porn.
the look on my cousin's face was priceless.
so then a couple months later, we went to the autorama 04. my friend ben came along, and we were watching the cable again.
the same thing happened to ben.
"what the hell did i do?"
so yeah, the mkoscablebox works well :cool:

"what the hell kind of music video is this?"
that's what my cousin said upon seeing softcore lesbian porn while flipping channels.
also, i think while we were watching terminator 3, we had to flip to 3 different channels to find one that wasn't gonna turn to porn.
