If you’re sick of cable like I am, then you will be interested to learn how reasonable a DirecTV 2 Room System can be these days. Do you remember the old days when the cost of satellite television along with the inability to watch local channels made cable the best way to go? Those days are over. For a small installation fee (sometimes free with a two-year service agreement), you can have a DirecTV satellite system installed in your home and pay as little as $40 per month—for 130+ channels including your local stations! What a deal!
When you purchase a DirecTV system, there are a few things to keep in mind. Do you want a normal, entry-level receiver? Or perhaps you want a top of the line receiver with Dolby Digital surround sound outputs, one-button record, component video output, and an Infrared/Radio Frequency universal remote control. Also, you must also have a clear line of sight to the satellite located in either the southeast or southwest, depending on what U.S. coast you are closest to (the satellite is located just south of Texas). Keep in mind that you can install the dish and receivers yourself, but it is highly recommended that you get a professional to install your system.
