    I noticed the exact same thing with our 2 hr20-100's the last week or so. the picture would lock. Resetting the unit seems to correct it for a day or so and it happens again. Wonder if it is new software version related.

    All my OTA locals are 73 miles away. Is there any antenna I can buy that will reach?

    there are no quarantees for 70+ miles so you will need the best choices of antennas and as much height as possible. separates will outperform combos Therefore disagree with the antenna choices so far. uhf KFOR-DT 4.1 NBC OKLAHOMA CITY OK 40° 6.0 27 uhf KWTV-DT 9.1 CBS OKLAHOMA CITY...

    DirecTv HD DVR - Newbie Perplexed

    The HD Dvr has a tuner only for digital OTA and not analog OTA. In my area not all networks are digital as yet (spring 2006) so I had to purchase the locals on directv to use full recording functionality.

    Well.... I'm returning the H20
