------------------

Dear Barrett & LLTI,

We have Dish TV at two of our language houses.

The French house has TV-5 and the subscription is about $100 per year.

The Spanish house has a 12 channel package and is about $400 per year.

We subscribe through the commercial division of Dish network.

So far we have been satisfied with the reception & programming.

Best,
