In Reply to: Digital vs Analog Cable... Not real impressed. posted by AbeCollins on August 3, 2003 at 09:59:17:
It is my understanding that digital cable is basically the same as regular satellite, the signal is just "hardwired" over cable lines, instead of being transmitted from satellites. I have Direct TV for my premium channels and analog cable for the rest, DSS is better of course, but I had the cable company install a special HQ amplifier upstream from the broadband and CATV connection, which improved my analog signal (and Internet connection speed) greatly. Maybe that could help you.
Satellite TV is really quite easy to install, You can buy a system for almost nothing, get a compass and aim the dish and you're there. I have a second dish on my RV, have gotten pretty good at finding those "birds".
