Don, I bought a 5000 series unit from Great Lakes Audio and Video at the web address W. Mena gave you(www.glav.com). I then had the unit installed by Echonet...the entire process went well.

The whole deal cost $220 for the box and 100 for install...on a special deal they had in Dec. Prices may be higher now.

Another supplier on the web is Satellite Services at www.satserv.com. 2 of my co-workers bought systemns from them and were happy with the experience.

I agree that the 5000 series is the way to go. The feature set is pretty broad and the Local Link setup allows you access your local cable on the one remote....it all goes through the 5000 box. I now get local channels via lifeline cable at approx 7$/month....it saved having to mess with the antenna and in my case, allows me to get Fox.

Good luck!
