Install question

Well, the last time I installed DTV was a long time ago and I did it
myself. Now I moved and am opting for free "standard install"

I am getting just 1 directivo and a 3 LNB oval dish (Ihave an HTDV but
right now I dont want to spend money for the HD Tivo)

My question is:

will the installer run two lines to my directivo or not as part of
"standard install"? I am asking since if the answer is no I will
probably pre-run the lines myself before he gets here.

Thanks
S

They should run both lines. You might consider getting a plain HDTV
receiver until you can scratch up ebough funds to get an HD-Tivo.

If I had to choose between Tivo features and HDTV, I'd take Tivo
without question. Have you ever used a Tivo or other PVR? (And
yes, I've watched HDTV; pretty, but not worth it, I think.)

Yeah right now I have both HDTV and a standalone Tivo (on TIme Warner
Cable). Since I mostly watch the Tivo the HDTV signal is worthless to
me (well, it does look a littlebetter even on tivo, and you can record
in widescreen, but who wants to fiddle with the aspect button all day).
Well, TWC keeps raising rates so I am dumping their ass. Hence, why I
am going to to Directivo only setup at least until the HD Directivo is
$400 or so.
