That used to be, with recent software upgrades it also works with the H21 and H23 non-DVR HD receivers.

Ah! Good news. Thanks for the edification.

That's good to know, but someone needs to tell the people at
www.solidsignal.com

and
www.directv.com


about this. Both websites only mention using it with a DIRECTV HD DVR.

This is probably because CE is test software, (unless this hotfix is national already) and CE software isnt publically released or talked about.

Was it a national software release or a CE? Rad didn't mention, so I assumed it was national.

Yes, it's been in the national release code for awhile now, along with enabling the ethernet port for Media Share and TVApps.

Well then, thanks again for that information!

I have 2 H21s, The am21 doesn't show up in the equipment portion for purchase on my account. Can I call Directv and try to get them to sell it to me anyway?

I will sell you one.

Always like & use the supporting companies as much as I can (SWM-8, cable supplies, etc..) but you're best bet here is to call DTV & negotiate a better price for the AM-21 as long as your account is in good standing. I've gotten them free all the way up to maybe $35.
