I am using RF to control my HR 24 but am having no luck programming AV1 and AV2 (for DVD and VCR) on my new DirecTV remotes. None of the codes seem to work. However, I was successful in programming these devices when the remote was set to IR. I now suspect that the remote will not support IR...

Would you guys let an installer put up a heavy 5 ft long, 2" diameter pole for a slimline dish using only a pole driver? He says he will drive it in the ground about 2 feet. He says he has been doing it this way for years with no problems. This is totally contrary to what I have read here...

I just signed up to D and my installation is scheduled this week. It's a SWM installation with 2 DVR and 1 HD receivers. I requested a SL5S LNB for the Slimline dish (thinking that 5 satellites must be better than 3), but the local dealer I'm working with insists that the SL3S will be all I...

I would be a new sub in the Charlotte market with HD receivers. Along with national HD and SD, I would need the Charlotte locals and my RSN. Due to obstructions, I will be unable to receive from the EA without running a 100 ft+ cable to a pole mount deep in the back yard. I can receive the WA...

I need run hdmi about 60 feet from my satellite box to LCD TV in another room. It must run down one wall, above a drop ceiling in the basement, up an existing 3/4" conduit to the attic, and down a second wall to the TV. HDMI cable seems out of the question due to its bulk and tight turns...

I want to hook up an HD receiver to a HDTV using HDMI and then use composite out to mirror on several SDTVs. Will the picture on the SDTVs be full screen or letterbox? Thanks.

Is is possible to use the HDMI, component, and composite outputs on D's HD receivers simultaneously? I'd use the HDMI or component outputs to an HDTV and the composite output to a modulator for whole house distribution. Do they all remain hot? Thanks.

I have one HDTV that I planning for an HDDRV and one SDTV. Are there any advantages to using an HD receiver on the SDTV other than being able to use MRV with the HDDVR? How about PQ? Are HD feeds downconverted by the HD receiver to 480i usually superior to SD feeds of the same programming...

I'm planning a new installation with a 722k and one other duo HD receiver. If I pay the $40 and add an external hard drive to the 222k, is it functionally equivalent to the 722k? Any performance, ease of use or other issues associated with that strategy to save the extra dvr fee? Or does it...
