Did you really rip out the coax, or did you use it to pull in the CAT6? I have both just in case.

Why would you rip out all the coax? Meth habit?

Unless they do it different from a year ago, its all over coax still.

With dishnetwork a new customer install includes new coax and running it. Has to be rg-6 cable and will not use existing lines in the house.

I like Dish's DVR (Hopper) better than the DirecTV setup. I have a Hopper and 3 Joey's (gay I know) and I pay like $110 a month. No HBO or anything, I have Netflix instead.
You can call an independent installer to setup your system, and don't have to deal with DirecTV/Dish's weird rules. I use the same guys to do all the houses I build, and it's a turnkey setup. |

The installers will run all new coax for however many tvs you want to pay for service on.
Eta, assuming you are entering in on a new contract |

I ran my own CAT6 cable and they used what I ran when they installed my directv.
