We decide to give up or get rid of the Dish. It has been a bust for us and at our new marina they offer cable. We tried a smaller dish but it is too much hassle. We will pay the penalty and move on.

 We have tried using my Droid X phone connected to our LED 27” TV for Netflix and it seems to work great. More testing will be needed before a definitive answer is in but so good so far. There is an unlimited data plan on the phone.

 We will switch to Cox cable then it is a much simpler plug un-plug to go sailing etc.

We can still watch our recorded programs and we have also done this at anchor!
