« HBO activated? | Chinese student community wants the Phoenix channel » |
I am happy to report that in the month since UCI Housing switched us over to DirecTV, I haven't seen any serious outages.
I have seen occasional receiver errors, though, but the DirecTV receivers seem to have a better error recovery mechanism that the receivers from Dish. They were up and running within minutes.
I am still waiting for HBO to be available. The housing website continues to say
HBO will be installed soon and will require a separate subscription to activate. Service will be provided on Channel 18. Subscription information is forth-coming.
Finally, we still need to push for more channels, in particular ESPN.
