I had my HD crash about 6 years ago, and at that time, the techs that diagnosed my dead PC, said that it would be EXTREMELY expensive to recover everything on it. And they weren't even sure who could do it. I still have that old hard drive, and I'm curious with technology advancements, wether it...

I'm currently a Charter sub, but every since they did the digital switchover on my area a few months ago, I've had problems that apparently won't be solved. But that's another story. I'm considering going back to Directv while they're offering many incentives. One being the ability to stream...

Anyone have the coordinates for a triple lnb Directv dish for zip 70643? Thanks.

Anyone know if Charter cable still has analog channels in the lineup? Thanks.

DH Satellite truely has some of the nicest spun aluminum dishes I've seen. I think there is even a perforated one available. Not sure, but although they seem to be geared for commercial use, sure be nice to see one of those 2.4M ones in my back yard. Didnt notice any prices. Question is, how...

which SD receivers out there have a good blind scan feature?

Been out of this for a while, and in that while I guess I got brain freeze. Can anyone tell me or point me in the direction as to how to add a sat to my viewsat platinum? 1-I got to the part where I manually name the sat Galaxy 25 2- As far as adding tp and SR info, I went into channel scan...

Looking at getting the CM 7777 preamp to add to my Antennacraft Ministate disk type antenna located in my attick. After doing some research on the antenna that I've had for a few years now, it seems it already has some sort of built in preamp. Would there be any kind of "conflict" by installing...

What exactly are QAM channels, and how do I identify them with my TivoHD using Charter? Are they any different than my HD locals I receiver through an OTA antenna?

Just had Charter cable installed today, and 1 room has the "box" installed mainly for the on screen guide. Is there a way to remove or hide in some way the porn channels listed? They are locked however the discriptions arent and some are a bit too "discriptive".

I receive my locals through OTA antenna so I can watch them in HD. Yesterday my local CBS affiliate listed in the EPG changed from 10-1 to 56-1 (which is their official digital number). Yet when I tune to 56-1, it's a blank screen with a "searching for signal on off air tuner" message. The...

OK I finaly called Directv yesterday about my unending problems with my HR21 / AM21 combo. When receiver is on a satellite channel and needs to switch over to OTA channel to record a season pass event, it "can't find tuner." I tune to the channel and its black. I do a reset and the channel...

does dish have a HD DVR that will actually "scan" for OTA locals?

Anyone looking for a Birdview dish and mount in the south Louisiana area, let me know. Dish is ready to go. I have the H-H mount in my storage building and in 2 weeks it has to be gone one way or another.

My current setup is an HR21 with AM21(OTA). I started getting this message yesterday on one of my OTA channels. Today ALL my OTA channels display this message. I checked my connections...they're fine. I even did a reset...still nothing. Normally when I press the on button on my remote, the TV...

Anyone know why Titan TV is showing so many "programming unavailable" lately?

Some of you may remember, last year in my ongoing search for that perfect Birdview( I found 11), but only 2 were the perferated variety that I really wanted(they were unattainable). However I did remove a solid that has been stored ever since in my fathers property out in the country, thinking...

Directv passed this info on to me after my HR20 suffered a hard drive failure this week. They say with the discontinuation of the analog signal next Feb. my HR20 will no longer be able to deliver my OTA signal. That sooner or later I will HAVE to get the HR21/AM21 combo in order to get my OTA...

Between these two receivers, I have to assume the HR20 series is the "higher end" one, yet just one of my pet peevs about the HR20 is the lack of OTA scanning feature that the H20 has. The H20 scans while the HR20 uses Directv database of channels. Why would the H20 have it and not the HR20? I...

A while back I saw pics someone posted, illustrating how they added what appeared to be a circular lnb(looked like a Directv lnb), mounted next to the old Primestar lnb. On the opposite side was what looked like a linear(maybe invacom) lnb. Has anyone ever tried this with a Primestar dish? And...

Anyone know the Directv customer retention number? Thanks.

Has anyone ever gotten out of the 2 year contract due to repeated hardware or service problems? As I've mentioned in other posts, this is my third HR20 since September. :(

Anyone ever experience while in live TV(happens to be on my OTA local) that the picture keeps skipping. It moves forward, but skips. This is an HR20-700. It will do this without warning. I then channel up or down and come back to that channel and it starts behaving normally. Any ideas?

After months of frustration with my HR20(replaced twice), I've decided to forgo the new MPEG4 HD channels, and go back to my Tivo(HR10-250). Last night while I was on the phone with CS, after it being a few months in hibernation I plug in the Tivo. It gets to the "Powering up" screen, then the...

With it's inability to scan for for OTA locals, (my old Tivo could), why in the world would Directv have designed the HR20 to "not scan locals", when I understand the H20 can? Does that make any sense? And is that something that could be corrected with a firmware update?
