Help, I live in Omaha and find that the tower locations are a nightmare for an OTA antenna. Some stations are located in one direction and several others are over 100 degrees off. Another important one to me (PBS) is 180 degrees from the majors. Someone has suggested that I mount an...

I have D* and basic cable (its free) running to my TVs and D* receivers through the same coax. It works fine. I had an installer put up a HD OTA antenna so I can get my locals in HD. The D* and cable still work, but the OTA signals do not come through. The installer is guessing that the OTA...

Sorry, if this has been covereged before, but I've got limited time now and I'd like to pick up the "free" H20 today. I downloaded the manual and see something about it needing a "5 LBN Multi-Satellite Dish Antenna - MPEG4 and Ka/Ku Compatable" What is this. I have a 3 (I think). Also, I...

I've been a member of this board for quite some time, so I know that this is the best place to get advice. I have a problem with one of my DirecTV locations in the house. It is the bedroom, where I have replaced a basic Samsung receiver with one of the original basic RCA receivers that came...

I'm in the midwest, with a clear view of the SW sky. I get a signal loss every time we get rain. I'm not just talking about a thunderous downpour, but even a steady drizzle. However, it seems that I often get a couple of the channels fine, I think TBS is one of them. Could it be a problem...

I purchased an RCA DTC210 on the secondary market and it worked fine until a strong storm knocked out power. It is now working well, except that I had to reprogram it. I run the locals through the box using my local basic cable package. To add confusion, I'm in one of those very few areas...

I have D* along with basic cable. I'm looking to swap out my basic RCA receiver (DRD435RH) with one that has a built in NTSC tuner that will recognize and show the cable channels. Can you folks point me toward the receivers that will do this? I'm not looking to make a major investment so...

I'm looking for a NON-TIVO HD receiver. If possible, I'd like one with an IR Remote. It doesn't need to be new. I want to hook it up to an HDTV and also to a non-HD LCD TV that I use in the next room as a "slave", ie I hooked it up using the RF Cable and it only shows what is on the HDTV...

I have D* and have started my 6 month HD experiment. Consequently, I have an HD ready TV and use the Hughes HTL-HD receiver. Since I have cable internet, I get basic cable for free. If/when my cable company begins to broadcast in HD, will my HTL-HD be able to pick up the cable signals in...

Once again in the "...for Dummies" vein, if I purchase a used DirecTV receiver, what hoops do I need to jump through to set it up with DirecTV? I'm considering picking up a used HD receiver for an HD TV that isn't used often, so I'm not looking to make an investment. If it is a "virgin card"...

A few months ago I bought an HDTV Ready TV from Phillips and upgraded my DirecTV receiver to a Hughes HTL-HD. My TV has 2 Composite Video Inputs. I hooked one up to the DVD and the other to the Hughes. It does have a RGB cable input. I did NOT subscribe the HD package. However, I have...

About 9 months ago I set up my DirecTV by going with the free 3 room set up with the RCA box that I got at Best Buy. BTW, I do not have a land line telephone so I do not TIVO or order PPV. I also kept basic cable (as it is virtually free since I have their cable internet service) so I get my...

Is this something new?
