For the past couple of years I have used Flamingo TV for cable service in my house. However, I understand that UTS/TDS also has a TV service via wireless from Curacao with perhaps more channel coverage. Has anyone used this service? Is the reception reliable? Is the channel coverage better, particularly for channels coming out of the US.

Thanks.

John,

Good questions, Ed and I have been using Flamingo TV at our home too. I'm wondering if it is like Direct TV in the States. My biggest concern would be weather related outages (satellite). I know a lot of friends of ours in the States had that problem with Direct and Dish networks in the states. I would love to hear opinions from others on Bonaire who have this. Also can one use UTS/TDS for internet and is it more reliable and just as fast as an cable hook up. We have also considered this option for your house too.

Liz
