A:Answer I forgot to add that you must have a source cable to attach, usually from your local cable provider. They may try to get you to pay a "set up fee" but that is a crock load. You are giving the cable company all that money so that the recipient can have the privilege of paying the cable company $100.00 +++ per month for service. It is a form of extortion, so tell them "NO set up fee, or no service from me."
Then speak to a supervisor to waive the fee if you so not get what your friend needs.
