I was not ckear, it seems.

I have satellite. A channel last night demonstrated
whether or not their signal would be properly processed,
by switching from analog to digital. We lost. Picture disappeared
and we got a test pattern for 5 minutes. I know I need to buy
the convertor box OR upgrade OR switch sat, providers.

So, which is the better? DIsh or DIrectTV? MY stomach
depends on the answer.
