How does one get an HR24? I'm a long time Direct TV customer (1997) but I understand getting the HR24 is very difficult. Any suggestions?

I want to know what the difference between a HR24-100 & a HR24-700 is?

scratch that last question...I didn't realize it was a H24-700. I thought there was two different versions of the HR24's...

To give you an idea.
The -700,-100,-500 designates the maker of the unit.

-700 is Pace
-100 use to be RCA/Thompson, but I don't know who it is anymore

The same units can be made by different companies.
