    Receiver question

    ADVERTS 1
    Can anybody tell me what the differences are between the new black HD-DVR receiver DirecTV now has on their website witht he one they were selling last year (HD-DVR 20 or something?)

    I would like to determine if its worth upgrading.

    Thanks

    HR20 has a built in HD OTA receiver. HR21/22 do not. If you are in an area that requires OTA, you'll likely get the HR21 and have to buy the AM-21 OTA receiver that plugs into the HR21 via USB.

    Additionally, as the model numbers go up, the HD capacity supposedly does too (even if it's only a small amount).
