Your best bet would be to remove the HDD and istall it in an external case.

Which satellite are those readings from? They look like the 101 sat to me. What are your readings on 99 and 103? But in any case the dish needs to be realigned.

My AM21 problem has returned. :coco I had to remove power to it to get remote control over the HR44. It might be an over heating thing.

My HR44 has received the 127f firmware and the 15s cycling has stopped. :biggrin So the AM21 seems to be working with the exception that I have a weak signal on one channel. I guess I'll need to get my antenna tweaked.

DirecTV has still not resolved its conflict with my local Fox affiliate owned by Northwestern Communications. DirecTV removed the station on February 22.
