Letterman is in perfect HD. With that said, someone appears to not be spending money on HD equipment. Would that be KDFI in this case, or are they simply buying the rights to present the Stars with another outfit doing the actual filming? Thanks again for the input. BTW, from reading your...

First, let's see if I understand in general...digital signals are simply how a station may deliver the picture, which so happens to be better quality. An HD picture resolution can only be displayed if the material was initially filmed with appropriate equipment to broadcast in HD. Desire-...

Simply put, I receive channel 27.1 KDFI in Dallas, TX (their HD broadcast), however, though the picture is wider than 4:3, it does not fill my 16:9 screen (see image attachment). I am using an attic antenna connected to my DirecTV H20 HD receiver. Note that I do receive other OTD broadcasts...

Thanks y'all, well explained.

H20

IRD...that's an acronym for what?

Coppel, TX a suburb of Dallas/Ft. Worth. DirecTV did the install 90 Plus...okay, it sounds like I need them to come out and adjust the sat.

I am receiving signal strength of 75-85 for any transponders for sat pick-up...DirecTV Tech Support told me that the quality of the picture will be the same for all signals over 70...is this correct?

Do I need to subscribe to DirecTV's DVR service to be able to record a TV show, specifically in HD?

I purchased a RadioShack rotar internal antenna to test sdtv local channels reception before I went and purchased a HD tuner for my system, and... The reception is horrible. My question...will reception of hd local channels be any different than what I'm presently experiencing w/ sdtv? I...

Okay, switching gears...outside of Dish Network's own HD receiver (Dish 811), what other brand of HD receiver could I purchase that would work directly w/ my dish service? Please be specific, as I am a novice at this, as if that wasn't apparent already :-)

Thanks, that does make sense. Though I can't believe everyone out there that has a different OTA tuner is using 2 remotes (or hardware buttons on one remote) to flip through all the different channels. I recall that there's a remote that could learn channels from no matter what tuner or...

I have dish network service w/ a standard tuner/receiver. If I want to integrate an OTA tuner/receiver into my system to start receiving local HD channels, will that require a different function on a universal remote control? Meaning, will I need to press the STB button to flip through the...

Thanks for the reply, I'm still slightly confused... 1. with a basic universal-learning remote, would I need to press a button on the remote to change to the new receiver each time I wanted to watch local channels and press another button to watch all the other programming offered by dish...

I have Dish Network as a service provider and have a DTV w/o a HD Tuner and looking to purchase a OTA HD tuner to receive my local channels in HD :cool: . If I purchase any one of the many hdtv ota tuners (such as the voom tuners I've seen recently) can I integrate it into my existing system...

Okay, but how do I integrate it into my existing system? Can I have it where I use my Dish Network remote as usual and pick up the HD signals through the set top box or will I need to use the remote for the set top box directly each time to get the hd signals? If my equipment was the...

Thanks for the input...my TV does not presently have the ability to present HD TV...I need a tuner, etc. It appears that all I need is an OAT (off-air tuner) and connect it to my TV and it's my understanding that then I can program my Dish Network system to pick up and display those channels...

I want the ability to pickup local HDTV content...here's what I have: Samsung HD-ready TV Dish Network basic package (no HD Tuner, just standard dual tuner) Antenna in attic In order to get HD from Dish Network, I would need to pay extra for their HD Tuner and pay for their HD service I...

I just started Dish network service w/ local channels and basic dual receivers. 1. I have a HD-ready Samsung DLP TV and looking into HD receivers/tuners...what should I look for so that it will show HD stations from my dish and HD local stations? 2. I would like HD local stations...I...
