dish does have more… whats funny is that direct said by 2008 they would have over 150+ HD channels… luckily i haven’t started to hold my breathe. Comcast has an alright package but dish is ‘better’ from a mere selection and package deal… they buy into packages of deals to push HD, dish just got new TBS and something else… i think i have 26 channels now?

i also use over the air… the benefit is that dishTV does not produce local channels in HD yet… they claim they will but haven’t … ask showtime about it! i use the radioshack over the air antenna just so that i can watch steeler games in HD and be able to sync it to the radio… the quality of hd is a resolution so it’s not better or worse if it’s true HD… its’ all equal.

some tvs have over the air antennas but they have been said to not be as strong as an external… my cheap over the air processes it into coaxle whereas my HD dish box has an HDMI connection… they seem to be the same as far as quality is concerned… my Fox HD channel over the air is equally as crisp as any movie channel on dish.

Where did you get your antenna and how much was it?
