One of the best things about satellite TV: You can receive a signal anywhere with no network, cables or anything else needed. That means that even in the most remote areas of Puna you can still get sat TV. No matter if you hook your satellite dish up to a tree or attach it to a pole in a field of lava, with sat TV you can stay on top of what’s happening in the world and you will not have to miss out on your favorite TV shows. Plus everything is 100% digital. The two main service networks for satellite TV in Hawaii are Dish Network and Direct TV. Even though both of these companies offer similar services on the mainland, Dish Network seems to be ahead of the game in Hawaii. Hawaii can actually get over a hundred DISH Network channels in addition to their local channels, pay-per-view entertainment, sports, and 23 movie channels. Dish Network Satellite TV offers several different packages, but basically you can choose between up to 2 receivers (Free-For-All) or up to 4 receivers (Digital Home Advantage). Program choices are America’s Top 60, America’s Top 120 and the Great Wall Package. No equipment purchase is necessary; you are basically renting the equipment. Add $5 per month to receive the 9 Honolulu (local) channels. America’s Top 120 also includes 60 stations Sirius satellite radio. Standard Professional Installation is available in Puna. Definitely check for promo offers including credits, rebates etc., as they can significantly bring down the purchase price of your satellite TV. Should you decide not to get satellite TV, but still want to have access to all the TV shows, sports events, etc., you can do this very easily with your Internet connection. TV.org offers you access to the largest P2P (person to person) network. Here you can download your favorite series (even old-time favorites), get full episodes and seasons, watch and downloads sports events, and get access to unlimited movies (including new releases), music, mp3s and more.
