Is it cheaper? I have a few (non-rhetorical) questions about this. Another non-rhetorical question is where to set it up. I doubt if it works well in the living room. For people who do not own a house with a yard (or some other place where they can set it up), there is the additional cost of buying such a house. I doubt that most apartment managers/owners would appreciate a bunch of tenants setting up satellite dishes on the roof. Muffy
