Well, I done-did it. No more DirecTV.. not goin to cable either. About 120 a month savings, and all I had to do was nail a pair of rabbit ears to the ceiling... 
I feel so... itchy... like I gotta get my fix lol... 2 more hours, and the receivers turn themselves into pumpkins!

Figured I could get what I want either off air of off the net. I have comcast, which is pretty fast, but also have the "business class" so they won't come hunt me down with taking too much bandwidth. I'm also on a pretty "quiet" node, so I doubt I'll max it out to where I'd bring attention to myself.
We'll see how it goes. I'm FREE heheh

Business Class.. means if it goes out, they got 4 hours to get someone out to fix it and I get better support.. and, they don't care how much I use it. Quiet node.. means basically that those in my neighborhood who also have Comcast either don't use it much or are just a few, so basically less chance of me "congesting" them (which sometimes makes Comcast want to look at what I'm doing closer).
Hehe.. well, I just got done getting new guts for the computer in the living room (hooked up to TV), my wife now has a cable where she can hook her laptop up to her TV, and I've had a TV as a monitor up here for awhile. So we all's got TV's hooked to computers, and dem 'puters can definitely put out nice picture quality as long as you find the right source.
Just finished tonight riggin' up an antenna. It's a cheap old pair of rabbit ears, but I have it hooked up to all 3 using the old satellite cabling plus put a signal amp inline. Works great.. I gets like .. 20 channels which if ya think about before cable, that aint bad.
