HR54

[texasbrit]

Yes but unfortunately not with the new customer deals....!

The HR54 and HR44 are the same speed, they use the same CPU etc If you intend to go to 4K then the HR54 will be the one to get. You will still need a C61K client or a TVU with RVU capability. Although if you are not planning to go 4K immediately, it's possible that by the time you do there will be a DVR with "native" 4K support that does not need the client.

One other piece on the path to 4K is having the correct LNB (3D2RB) for your dish. They are currently only available in the NY/PA area. This will expand in the future.

OR if you are fortunate to snag one off of eBay, WHEN available.

I got mine off ebay...

Does anyone have experience with Reid Electronics out of Texas? They have good prices on receivers, but I've only bought from SS previously.

 

[texasbrit]

Never heard of them...

You bought up all the reverse band LNB's on ebay?

Do they have another name? I just searched that name and only came up with a company in KY.

Yup

Can't go wrong. At $40 they are cheaper than a SWM16

I was trying to see if we had a laughing emoji(couldn't find one), because that's actually funny.

There is actually one on eBay at the moment, there were two but I bought one I'm convinced these people have no clue what they're selling

 

[clayky]

My mistake, it's Reider Electronics.

 

[HoTat2]

Still no one on ebay can seem to get their hands on a 5D2RB yet ....

Darn it, ... frustrating. ...

My 34 died and they replaced it with a 54. I really like this box.

Loss of what coming from the dish 622?

 

[rcwilcox]

Ota stupid auto correct

 

[jcrandall]

If you didn't know you can add OTA with a 2 tuner module called the AM-21. It is bigger than the HR54 but does work with it.

Often on eBay under $50. DirecTV may still have available but it is officially discontinued so they may not.
