Re: [IA] Turned on TV for first time since Superbowl Fail

You should be able to get a dish if you want one.

If there is a problem with your service from Mediacom, Chad can help get service calls set up to fix the problem.

It is written in my lease, we cannot have dishes. This is a historic building and my landlord will not budge on the idea as it will be an eyesore.

You may want to look into federal FCC law & rulings. You may just well find that the FCC law on antennas & dishes for satellite reception trump any statement in a lease, including "historic". I don't guarantee anything, but if I were you, I'd look into it.
Otherwise, it sounds like you have a cable issue inside of the building.

That FCC stuff is *SO* fun to read. Zzzzzz.

IMO, landlords should provide common antennas. I'm used to seeing satellite dishes all over the place, but they aren't made for looks.
