What satellite company is the best one?

DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE PHONE LINE TO GET SATELLITE HOOKED UP?

• OK SO NORMALLY THE PHONE LINE ON A SATELLITE BOX IS JUST TO ORDER PAY PER VIEW MOVIES. BUT DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE A HOME PHONE FOR THE SATELLITE COMPANY TO INSTALL THE SATELLITE AT YOUR HOUSE? I KNOW MY PARENTS HAVE HOME PHONE BUT DIDN'T HAVE THEIR PHONE LINE HOOKED TO THE SATELITTE. IS IT REQUIRED TO HAVE WHEN YOU HAVE A SATELLITE INSTALLED THE FIRST TIME. IF I GET ONE CONNECTED. ALL I HAVE IS CELLPHONE NO HOME PHONE.

• Answer:

  if you only have 1 receiver box they usually do not care much.. if you have more than one they usually care more about being able to determine if both of the boxes are located at the same place, and that you are not using an additional receiver at a different location.. the satellite companies realize that most people are ditching their land lines, so you should discuss this with them when you order your service... the phone line is not only used for sending PPV information, but also used to confirm that your receivers are all located at the same place..
