    HR21 install

    Thanks for the info. Just to make sure I have it right- I have two H20s currently. However, I am only replacing one with a HR21. The one I am replacing has 2 lines to its location. So if I understood you correctly, then I will not need to do anything special. The H20 that I am not replacing...

    HR21 install

    I am thinking of upgrading to a HR21. I currently have a H20. I have two lines coming off the dish etc. Is there anything special I need to do before I hook up the HR 21? I was looking over the HR 21 manual. It talks about a SWM (single wire module). How do I tell if my installation...

    Is anyone aware of any promos for current DirecTV HD customers to upgrade to a HD-DVR?

    Any recommendations for an indoor antenna?

    I would recommend a Terk HDTVa antenna. It is an indoor, amplified antenna and provides excellent channel reception.

    OTA Reccomendations

    I just bought a Terk HDTVa yesterday at BestBuy (indoor antenna). Excellent reception of all HD channels in the DFW area. It's as good as the outdoor Winegard antenna I've had the last 4 years.

    HR20 = Jackpot for me!

    Is there a special number for the retention department?

    Two lines or splitter

    I am thinking of getting a HD-DVR. Do I need to have an additional line coming into the house or can I just split the current line into two inside the house?

    OTA-HD channels not being received

    I live in the DFW area and as of yesterday morning, I have not been able to get the local channels in HD through the OTA antenna. I called DirecTV and they said something about a software update that prevents the OTA signal from passing through the STB. I have a H20 receiver and a 3-LNB dish...

    Upgrade to DTV 5LNB

    Thanks for the info. Do I need to get the BBC converter for programming received through the 3 LNB, or is that something I need only for the 5 LNB dish?

    Upgrade to DTV 5LNB

    Will the 3 LNB dish continue to work even after Sep. 2007?

    How to get OTA back?

    Can someone list which local channels are available in HD with the 5 LNB dish in the DFW area? Also, do you really lose the OTA channels with the 5 LNB hook-up?

    Hd Stb

    Do the HD-10 receivers have an integrated diplexer? I want to combine OTA and satellite feed and I know I need an diplexor by the dish/antenna to combine the signals. Just need to know if I need a diplexer at the receiver as well or if it is already built-in.

    Too Late...

    I can't believe it either! What a shame Voom had to close down. Have you made the switch to Dish or Direct? Any thoughts on which one is better for HD content?
