Heah :(. I tried the resetting of 3 of the receivers, but just as I expected, we now have 3 televisions "stuck" on "searching for satellite." This sucks! The one television is sitll going (with the exception of IFC, USA, TNT, and probably a few others). I'm totally confused by this...

I'll try this shortly, but just so you guys know, we are still not recieving IF, USA, TNT on any of the televisions (searching for sat. signal error). And the one receiver is still completely not receiving anything. Any idea why these channels can not be found? This seems very odd to me :(...

again... :( Ok, similiar thing happening again. One television just stopped recieving the sattellite signal. It just sits there and says "searching for signal," while the other 3 televisions are fine. Well, almost fine; It seems that certain channels are not coming in at all: USA, IFC, and...

A lot more great channels and programming??? To be honest, I'm really not sure the plus channels warrant my extra $4... :)

Hmm...I havn't talked w/ any techs but we've been having 90+ degree weather also. Anyone else w/ similiar experiences? Actually, I just had to reset another box a few minutes ago...weird!!!

Hmm...it appears that direct tv is now working since this morning. Oddly there was no bad weather around, so I'm not sure what caused the problems yesterday; any ideas?

Well, I unplugged one of the units (for 15 minutes) and now that TV is like the one previously mentioned; that is, it can not find any channels at all :(. So, now I have 3 televisions missing 101 channels and 2 not getting anything... Looks like I'll have to call direct tv in the morning...

>Was there a power outage? no >Have you to reset the boxes or tried unpluging them for 15 minutes? I'll try now >Any bad weather or wind? nope Any summer leaves filling in? will check to see if there are leavers all over the dish, but doubt it.

Forgot to mention that it is a 3 LNB dish, and this is the first time having a problem where the dish can't find the satellite. The 101 channels all have "searching for signal" on the bottom...

Hi: Is there any possible reason why all of a sudden (today) I can't get any of the satellite 101 channels? Is there some type of maintenance in effect? In the signal mode, it shows a good signal for the other 2 satellites, but it simply can not find 101; any ideas? Also, I was playing...

Oh yeah, that is right. I just gotta make sure that the receiver isn't turned off during any scheduled programming. You record satellite programs using your vcr this way? Heah, its kind of funny, but I was kind of hoping that there was no way to do this, as I was looking for an excuse to...

Can tivo be set to record programs coming in from an OTA signal?

I was hoping to avoid any more monthly charges :(. A few more questions: 1.) Where can you get this SD tivo dvr 80 for $50. I thought that the cost was a bit more? 2.) I just purchased a 5-room setup, and am wondering what happens if I buy another receiver (either the HAH-SA or tivo...

This sucks, I have a VCR/DVD combo where I would use my VCR *a lot* to tape programs in advance, weekly, etc. Now, given that my vcr setting really only recognizes CATV, I can only tape CATV programs. Actually, I can have the vcr record a satellite program, but I have no real scheduling...

It's hughes, thanks. Also, will there be a problem when recording satellite programs vs. cable programs? That is, if I set my vcr to record a certain channel, will it be able to distinguish between the "local" and "satellite" modes? Hmm...now that I think about it, I'm wondering if my vcr...
