First of all Shooter - the Subscription is your first priority as you obvioulsy get a working box,dish, card & install all in one..Then you have a working box that you can learn from...so first of all forget about free tv cause it doesn't exist...
After you get the sub you can then read your card details as a working set of details and play with them on another card...that's when the fun starts cause you start to play with it all and start to learn what it's all about...
By all means then go out and buy a hummy and play with that too and after getting that and a programmer will you learn about how it all works...
So first things first is ya subsription and then play time..
