Best TV service for Hunting & Fishing?

[Finlander]

Direct,Dish,Comcast?

Can't get good info on the internet!

I want all the outdoor channels if possible.

Don't care about cnn,nbc,etc., or the other boring shows.

I have Charter cable with a digital upgrade package.

I get the WFN 24 hrs of fishing everyday!

Also VS network, Outdoor channel, Sportsmans channel, all the Fox net channels, also the local MN channels that carry fishing.

The Outdoor channel and Sportsmans channel have tons of hunting shows.

I don't know what channels you are trying to get but both dish providers have a link on their websites that will show what channels each package gets. It can be a little confusing to look at but its all their. If you are thinking of going with dish I would recommend looking for a smaller vendor/seller of the dish products in your area and visit their shop. I went to one of the large retailers and nobody working knew much about the packages. I went to this small shop and the guy knew both the Dish and Direct progamming up and down, very helpful.

I've got Directv and really like. My parents have Dishnetwork which I also like but there are a few small things about my system that I prefer over Dish. In the end I went with Directv because their package had one channel I really wanted that the same priced Dish package did not. I would say it's a toss up between the two.

As far as Comcast, I had service with them several times when I was a renter. My opinion was that their service was terrible. They sent out a third party contractor to do the install (not a comcast employee) which would not be a big deal normally. This was the kids first day on his own route. He didn't even have his own cell phone yet. He had to borrow my phone to avtivate the receiver.

The only down side of the dish is that in severe weather you will occasionally loose service. It does not happen often and has been a non-issue for me.

Also, if you have the extra $5/month, get the DVR, it's well worth it. I rarely watch anything live now and can just skip through the commercials!
