Sqrambling to hurt, not kill 'dish' makers By Peter Coy Associated Press Satellite-dish makers told the public recently that "The skies are not 1 going even as Showtime-The Movie Channel, began scram-. bling its signals full-time.

Dish owners can keep watching scrambled programs if they buy a $395 de-. scrambler and pay a monthly fee, roughly the same amount paid by cable subscribers, industry representatives The satellite-dish business took a nosedive in January after Home Box Office began scrambling its signal full-time. "HBO was our Hiroshima. We didn't want Showtime to be our Nagasaki," said Charles Hewitt, executive vice president of Space, the satellite television industry; association. Hewitt complained that inaccurate news 'reports and misinformation by the cable-TV franchises had caused panic that wiped out about half of the companies that sold satellite dishes.

Hewitt said satellites are still the only answer for the roughly 24 mil-, lion households out of reach of ca-; ble. Also, some of the 60 million households that can get cable TV might still want a dish because they can get better reception with it and usually more channels, Hewitt argued. So far, dish owners have been slow to pay for services they once received free. HBO spokesman Alan Levy said about 10,000 dish owners have bought descramblers and signed up to pay for HBO and Cine-max since scrambling began. That is slightly less than 1 percent of the roughly 1.5 million households that Hewitt says have satellite dishes.
