The reason I asked is because they are probably headed where Directv and Dishnotwork have gone. When D* started in 1994, the equipment cost to a customer was around $600. Today, the equipment is free in exchange for a 1 year programming agreement. All of these companies are in business to sell programming, not equipment. It's nice to get both and D* did while they could. If history is any indication the price of this radio equipment will start dropping and continue to do so until it is free. I'm going to wait for that to happen.
