    Help! Only Even Tranponders on D* 72.5 Dish

    I checked out my 6x8 switch. The first dish is plugged into the 101° ports, the second dish (my locals on 72.5°) is plugged into my 101/119° ports. I switched the second dish to the flexports just to see what would happen. All three receivers lost signal. I put them back & presto, all good again.

    saving to VCR ??

    Hi. When a person saves to a VCR does it have to be one show at a time, or can several shows be qued? For example, Say I have 6 Family Guys TiVoed. I want to save them to tape. Do I have to save one at a time or can I tag 6 to save & the Tivo will transfer them in order to the VCR?

    Disappointed with HD-DVR

    The insanity. That's one more thing about the Tivo. The 30 minute buffer is too small.

    satellite dish mount options

    I have two 18" D* dishes. I like the way the one is mounted to my 3 sided antenna tower much better than the way the other is. Is there a good website I can browse that has hardware I can purchase to mount my dish a different way? Thanks.

    Disappointed with HD-DVR

    I love my TiVo, but it's true the remote blows, no on screen caller id blows & the slow & pictureless guide blows. I hope the new Direct DVR fixes all these problems. With that said, I still like my TiVo. Sure a guy could buy an $80 remote, disassemble a brand new TiVo & attempt to make...

    RFD-TV (channel 379) moved from 101 to 119 satellite

    No kidding. Myself I find the shows on old tractors/machinery interesting & educational. (I grew up on a farm). RFD is 100x better than say Lifetime....

    Direct polo shirts??

    I saw Paris Hilton was wearing one. They're sexy. Myself I'd rather pimp a TiVo shirt :)

    Sound loss on TiVo

    no it's OK now. In fact when I lost sound, if I flipped to a channel I wasn't recording I had sound.

    Sound loss on TiVo

    She likes the Tivo but won't admit it. She is just rubbing it in because the VCR never did that. Plus whenever someone comes over I'm like watch this! Pause, rewind etc. cool huh? Hell yes they all reply.

    Sound loss on TiVo

    Two times now my Samsung 80 gig Tivo has lost sound on a recorded program. Last night I was watching Fear Factor about 20 minutes after it started. Everything was going fine then it pixelated for a second (like bad weather) the pic came back but then the sound went out & I couldn't get it back...

    Direct TV DVR - Caller ID?

    I was really let down by the lack of caller id too. I love my Tivo, but I like on screen caller id. It seems like such a small thing to add.

    HUGHES GAEB0 and GAEB0A update!

    I had 4.5 year old RCA's. I got the D10's when I upgraded to locals. The D10s are a BIG step backwards. They have terrible remotes, The don't look as nice in your entertainment center, the on screen displays aren't good, the guide is slow & it sometimes won't come up right away. When switching...

    HUGHES GAEB0 and GAEB0A update!

    Something to think about though. While the RCA's are far superior to the D10s, The RCA will not have 100% function with the interactive features & the D10 will , correct? I hope I'm wrong. I want to hookup my 435RHs in place of my D10s.

    CAMC errors, DirecTV System Failure Update

    They aren't old. It's my Tivo & D10's. In fact it seems to happen most often if I switch from a local channel to say Espn or etc. Is that normal? I have the two dish setup for locals.

    D10--Why did I buy this???

    I had RCA's. When I decided to get locals my RCA's would not work. So they traded me D10's. These D10's blow!!!! These receivers make a Dish 301 seem good.

    Grounding the Direct dishes

    Actually I didn't disconnect the ground from the gasline. I later disconnected the gas line itself from the main meter. I had my driveway widen with more concrete so that line had to get dug up or instead I just smashed it & buried it in concrete. I figure that now it is a disconnected buried...
