So much info....wonderful...thank you all. Sharon, you're right, Scott (my son) has the box & someone there to set up the antenna or dish or whatever that thing is called. So he should be good to go...as far as what channels he gets (local or otherwise)....I don't think he cares much, just so he has some contact with the outside world...He's got so much 'on his plate' right now that I think he needs the diversion so he can get his mind onto other things. He has rarely asked me for help over the past few years, and we've had some real 'in your face' angry discussions which led to not speaking for lengths of time, so when this came up, I obviously wanted to help him so we could at least have a better 'understanding' between us. He's a good man but we just don't see eye to eye on a couple of really serious issues...I'm of the mind that let's agree to disagree...but he just can't leave some topics alone...& goes on & on. That's why I kinda back off & just do my own thing. Anyhow, no sense in going over family problems...However, it's one of the reasons I watch this website so much...I really don't have anyone to turn to for advice or support...so I get my energy & comfort from the women here who share their ups & downs....and you know Sharon, when things get haywire badddd...I call you & you've always been a positive influence with your listening & being supportive... Okay, I'm off the subject (again...) Thanks to all....& Mitch got your PM...thank you...Sharon, you take care...Hope everyone has an absolutely wonderful Sunday....wherever you are
