Cablevision?

[BerubeHater]

I just purchased a condo and apparently it has cablevision. Does anybody know what this is or how it works? I heard from my grandfather that it is a choice of satellite dishes that the buidling has, is this correct?

Thanks for your help.

Unless it is Shaw included in your rent, I think your grandfather is correct. They likely have half a dozen dishes on the roof, run it through a tuner and send the signal down to your TV. Just like a smaller version of what Shaw does.

Something like that would cost in the 10's of thousands to set up, but at $30 per month over 100 units the cost savings can add up pretty quick.

The downside is you likely have a similar channel offering to what Rogers had circa 1995.

Thanks for your help, I appreciate it.

But also if you are facing South you can always sneak a ExpressVu dish on your balcony and actually get good programming
