    HR-34 crashing

    oh yeah, HDCP negotiation trying to go through to the TV and erroring out since the TV isnt there.

    Can humidty cause signal loss?

    Do not, EVER, use WD40 on electronic connectors. It is a flammable substance that gets sticky as it decays.

    Got a strange question here.

    technicly it would work with a fine coating... however wd40 as it breaks down actually gets sticky/tacky, so if you did it now itd be sticky by the time snow comes. a super soaker with hot water works best if its roof mounted.

    I need a little help dealing with Equipment/CSR issues

    so the corporate office of Directv called me. He glossed over 90% of my email but he did understand my frustration. So tomorrow a tech will be out with a new HR34, and a SWIM LNB and Switch.

    Help me understand something about internet upload speeds
