    MRV - Do it yourself?

    You mean the same installers that saw a berber carpet and were about to drill a 1" hole through it? The same installers that get to your house and want an additional $65 every time they come? I don't trust those guys at all.

    MRV - Do it yourself?

    Why won't DirecTV allow me to install this myself? According to the Customer Retention rep, all that happens is the multiswitch is replaced, my receivers are upgraded, and 1 line goes into my DVRs instead of 2. I don't trust their installers, as we've NEVER had a good experience and would...

    Promising, except installation instructions say it requires a stud.

    Wall Mount HD Receiver

    I did that more than once. Everyone: I don't want to make this a debate about RF. I'm NOT INTERESTED in RF. If you have any suggestions to solve the actual issue, please, let's hear them.

    Wall Mount HD Receiver

    I have both. .. HR22's and H20s. All stink. Happened in our old home too. I don't care less about having to be line of sight... just want a good mount that I can put under the TV centered and not to 1 side because it needs a stud.

    Wall Mount HD Receiver

    RF works, but it works so poorly.. you key in numbers, it ignores them, etc etc. It does this on ALL of our boxes that can handle RF so we do not use it anymore I really would rather find a solution that does not involve RF.

    Wall Mount HD Receiver

    I mounted our 32" TV in our bedroom, and my wife would like me to mount the receiver directly under the TV (getting it out of site is not an option, as she can't stand how slow the RF remotes are on the HD receivers OR the HD DVRs). Does anyone know of a mount that can be used that does NOT...

    HR22 sounds like it's ALWAYS running

    We have 2 HR22's. One is quiet as quiet can be.... even when on. The other, on or off, always sounds like it is running.. it has a low hum to it all the time. It happens to be right by my desk so I can hear it but is there a reason to this? I took the ethernet cable out thinking that may be...

    b-band converters (I'm an idiot)

    Are we sure this is real? It's not on the DirecTV domain.

    b-band converters (I'm an idiot)

    Im painting my master bedroom and office. I box up everything (TVs and receivers) in some boxes I had, and paint away. Yesterday, I'm moving stuff back into the room. I set them where they are going to go, and start moving the rest of the stuff. In the meantime, my wife, thinking she's being...

    HR22 Power Cord....

    7.99 works for me, and yes, the back of the hr22 has 2 prongs. Definitely faster/easier than D.

    HR22 Power Cord....

    OK, bad memory of the cord then.. It probably is 2 prong on each end. I'd still like to know where to pick one up :)

    HR22 Power Cord....

    We were redoing the family room today, and I misplaced the power cord of my HR 22. I have a bundle of the 3 prong power cords (3 prong on both ends) that my H21s use, but I do not have another 2 prong into the receiver, 3 prong into the wall obviously, power cords. Anyone know where I can...
