    I just checked and I do NOT have it either.

    How much to move the HD DVR?

    I move my DVR's all the time. March Madness requires 4 in the living room at one time to watch 4 games at once. I moved them to the basement and upstairs all the time. I would have never considered paying anything to have that done...unless there was no spot in the wall to do so. You can...

    3 LNB to 5 LNB Dish Pointing

    I will have to check with him to see what his strengths are today. What do you mean by Phase III?

    Channels and Signal Strength

    In the old days, you could be on a channel and go to signal strength to see what it was for that channel (transponder). With my HR20, obviously that is not as easy. I am having audio dropouts on ESPN, ESPN2, and occassionally TNT(245). I have seen through other threads that sometimes the...

    3 LNB to 5 LNB Dish Pointing

    So, is there anything my Dad can do on his own using the signal strengths with his current receiver? I think you may have been alluding to that, but I am not sure. I guess it is worth the call to see if they will come back and try again.

    3 LNB to 5 LNB Dish Pointing

    I saw reference to this in another post, but thought I should bring it out to its own. I did a quick search, but didn't find a thread, so forgive me if it is there (just point me there if it does)... I get limited information from my Dad, but here is what I know: He currently has a 3LNB and...

    HR 10-250 and New HD Channels

    Good, thanks for the confirmation and the advice. I am sure we can work out something with them...eventually. Does it seem wrong to anyone else that you have to beg and threaten before they give you something? It really cheapens their customer service when you end up getting something but...

    HR 10-250 and New HD Channels

    My Dad has an old 10-250 (HD DVR), but I don't think the new HD channels will be viewable on it, right? He gets the current version (72, 73, 74, etc). I don't enough about mpeg-4 and that stuff to translate to English and I did try to find this answer through the search. I am just trying to...

    HR20 Audio Drops Out and Image Pixelization on HD channels

    Just wanted to chime in and say I have the same problem. It has just started in the past 3 or 4 weeks. It is on all the 70's. Some days are worse than others. My dish was professionally installed and perfect as far as I know. Can someone tell me what the transponder or satellite signal...

    Satellite Dish Cover

    I saw you in the other forum. If you find a Duke cover, definitely let me know. I will begin dropping hints to my brother as a gift. There is not a lot of Duke stuff in the heart of Big 10/11 country and specifically in the heart of OSU territory. At least I got to watch the Big Ten games...

    Satellite Dish Cover

    Thank you. I should have done a search in the forums first. I guess I thought this was unique and no one had discussed it yet. I should have known better.

    Satellite Dish Cover

    I saw this in the local paper today. A mesh cover for your satellite dish. I looked around quickly on the Internet, but didn't really find much. I thought you guys may have some ideas about the covers (do they interfere at all?) and maybe where I could get them (gift for my brother...Iowa and...
