| Just Great!!! I wonder how much will my rates go up... I would switch to satellite, but my apartment lease forbids the dishes. I only have cable so I can look at the local channels. I was looking forward to the DTV until I couldn't pick up any channels; so I am stuck paying Comcast $13/month. I would like to upgrade my service but the only promo they are offering me is digital cable for $50/month for 3 months (I don't think so) and then it goes up to an obscene $70 monthly. I am in an area where there is no telco TV so they can charge whatever they want. The rep suggested I bundle my service but I only pay $40+ tax for phone and DSL... and $13 for the cable. For $70, I would only be getting only 1 or 2 of the services on Comcast. No thanks, I will pass...
I wish I could get a la carte channels as well without the strings. |

The FCC's OTARD rule primarily prohibits the indiscriminate banning of the placement of antennas. If a city ordinances adopt the National Electric Code recommendations, then those recommendations become law and are exempt from OTARD protection.

Jacksonville, FL | Hi All,
I keep reading in the forums where the nfl network has been moved to a different 'tier', I believe I read the digital classic / preferred tier. I live in the 32218 zip code area, as far as I know, the only way we can receive the nfl network is on the sports and entertainment tier that we are paying extra for. Does this apply to anyone else in here ?
