We switched from DirectTV to DishTV a few years ago because they kept jacking up prices. We finally dropped DishTV completely too because they kept jacking up prices. We are now over-the-air only. So, we don't have to pay for fifteen thousand six hundred ninty-nine stations of advertisement any more. Do you realize, most stations show 1 minute of show and 2 minutes of advertisment.... time it and draw your own conclusions what you are really "paying" for. So now we get FREE advertisments! And we get what we get, wherever we happen to get it. And at least it's free and every camping spot is different. Our world is so much simpler now! My solution to your problem, get rid of satellite TV and just stick with over-the-air.
Count yourself lucky you were able to talk to a real person on the phone!
2 minutes of commercials for 1 minute of show, I think you have that backwards. It is about 22 minutes per half hour around here.
I am not sure how this helps him with his issue, maybe he doesn't want to give up his service, just get it working.
