dishrich, thanks for the information. I did call D today and they basically said that I would have to pay for the 2nd HD DVR receiver. I will say that the rep was pleasant and that it was refreshing to speak to someone that I could understand. That was certainly a different experience from...

Hi guys, New here but thought I would chime in. Today I have spent a LOT of time looking over the Directv offerings and I admit that I am seriously considering making the switch. This is honestly NOT because I am siding with Fox, nor is it because I am unhappy with Dish. It is simply a choice...

Okay, I guess I missed that part. The zip for my town is 62849. The local channels I currently receive (through Dish) are the St. Louis channels. Directv does show them as being offered in HD. Thanks again for your help.

Hi guys.. I am strongly considering making the switch from Dish to Directv but I'm having a lot of problems figuring out what equipment I will need. Here is my current setup: Living Room: VIP 622 HD DVR which controls our t.v. in the living room and also a smaller t.v. in my home gym. My wife...
