Here is a SatelliteGuys Rumor that I just got in from a source that I trust.
The rumor is this...
DirecTV is getting ready to roll out software updates to its High Defition Receivers, this update will shut off the OTA tuners in the receivers when a customer cancels DirecTV service.
I am told that if a customer tries watching an OTA channel they will see a "Service Not Active" (750) message on their screen.
I can see this causing some uproar. I guess DirecTV is trying to keep people from buying their receivers just to use them as cheap OTA tuners.
More as we know it.
