Hi and thanks for that, and sorry for delayed reply. Apparently the
Ashes tour is going to be on Direct TV, so if you do swap over to
satellite, Direct TV would be the one to go for rather than Dish. It
seems like a bit of a mess to me that there are two different
satellite companies for cricket. Does anyone seriously have two
satellite receivers? Is there a way of grabbing Direct TV feeds on
Dish -- I don't know the answer to those things. But I'll be sticking
with Willow. It's not perfect but it'll do. All best, Mark
