I live in Baja about 50 miles S of Ensenada - I have some friends where one already had dish installed in his residence in Calif and what he did is order 3 additional boxes for $4.95 a month and my friends then installed the boxes in their residences here - they installed there own 18" dishes w/2lnbs for 110 and 119 and they work fine. By the way in order to avoid any difficulties they just added up the yearly total of the bill and devided it four ways and each paid the actual subscriber for the year - since they all were aware that the PPV's would become available sooner rather then later on the premium channels and they could live without porn there were no additional charges to deal with - I believe it cost them each about $25 a month for all the channels incl all the premiums - If there is not an iks solution to the n3 problem soon then I also have friends that have agreed to do the same.Not sure about getting the equipment in mexico from dish - only sky is available here in baja to my knowledge but you can inquire and if they give you any problems just have it delivered to your us residence. I believe you can get the box or boxes 1 dish w lnb(s) up to so many feed of cable for free along with your sub - I think you can tell them that you want the equipment but will install it yourself - then just bring it down or ship it to your address in Mexico (I'm sure you are aware that if you ship it - there are chances that it will be 2010 before it's delivered).
