I've been researching this issue also. We have had DTV for 14 years. Never had it in our RV - just never seemed to want cable there. Loved DTV and all it had to offer. But when At&t bought DTV it didn't take them long to start playing games with DTV as they do with their cell system. Wow! It's ok when getting in but getting out is another story. Terrible company IMO. I am going to try Dish when my contract with Atand T expires. If I like it we will put that in our rig. Also, watch out with ATT. They now start adding on to the contract period when you change/upgrade equipment.
