I just got a flier from a company called Wireless Cable.  They're currently
advertizing $1.00 hookup (a 1.4 meter antenna) and a basic package of:

     1) HBO                             11) Discovery Channel
     2) TBN                             12) CNBC
     3) Sci-Fi                          13) Shop at Home (Daytime)
     4) CNN                             14) Cinemax
     5) Superstation TBS                15) TNT
     6) WGN                             16) The Nashville Network
     7) ESPN                            17) USA
     8) MOR Music TV                    18) BET
     9) The Family Channel              19) Mind Extension University
    10) Headline News                   20) A & E

    (plus digital stereo and rock/country/easy listening radio stations)

The rate for the basic service is $39.00/month.  There are also two
optional channels, Disney and Playboy.

I called their 800 number with a few questions.  It turns out that this
connected me with a national clearinghouse for credit checks.  The person
on the phone told me that she couldn't answer any questions but I could
apply for the credit check and, if I passed, a local distributor would
contact me.  The distributor would then be able to answer my questions
about the local options.  (She did stress that the credit check in no way
obligated me.)  I declined.


Anyone heard of these people?
