1. I always thought they belonged to the company

I had some for years for some reason, and I finally took them to be recycled.

$5-15 on eBay
whatever metal recycling pays
you could pay an electronics recycler to dispose

9. There is so little value that they will not come and get them

I bought a house with a direct TV receiver on the roof. I called them to come and get it as we here going with Fios, they told me it was mine to keep. I think they look at it as free advertising.

We had dish years ago and it went on the fritz every time there was bad weather, snow or heavy rain and it was awful. Two kids snowed in the house and no tv. Hated it
