We had to buy a separate dish and IRD to get Deutsche Welle. I found the information on their website and contacted a local satellite dish installer (he did out DISHnetwork installations, too), for a total cost of around $1000, as I recall. On the up side, the programming is free. On the down side, we've found that it's mostly "talking heads" -- and not enough in German (a lot in English and Spanish). We are lookjing into "GermanTV" for more variety, but I don't think that is going to be anytime too soon. I would appreciate hearing from anyone in the northeast who has got that service in place, however!
Cheers,
Margo
