The cable company partners stopped funding Primestar shortly after the ASkyB deal was announced. If that is not lost focus, I don't know what is. I've been to Englewood and heard this right from the horses mouth. In addition to September's fall promotion which has led to "a double digit increase in phone calls" anti churn measures have also been taken. Let's see! The DISH promotion requires an upfront $600.00 payment in order to save $249.00. Primestar is a large player in NASCAR racing, they market through the farm bureau. This rural marketplace is less sensative to DISH size and is more concerned with $$$. $600.00 up front, maybe in the North East.
