Guess I will see I am testing another one now until I get that one and so far its working fine. I just dont see how dish can use a line splitter but DTV cant. I know about the SWM but as we all know we cant get one.

Had anyone tried these before? I have been told by several people that these work great for DVR's hd or sd. These take the place of the need for a second line. I didnt beleive it until I was shown that they do work. Holland HFS-2D KA/KU band HF splitter. You can get them here Splitters...

Funny guy! :D

It get really frustrating when we have to deal with customers like you. Everything should be free free free! As far as I'm concerned just get cable or have mastec come out and do the install. Now I do agree that the sales person should tell ALL customers the its only the standard install is free...

What I do is go to a muffler shop and get their 2" pole it is thicker then fence post and its right around 15 bucks. Dig down about 2 feet, Make sure you flatten the end that goes in the ground so the wind wont turn the pole. Set the pole into the hole pour in the concrete and dry pack it so its...

I would say the installer just didnt want to get into burrying the line. ( Which I understand 150 feet is alot of line) Now if you were to burry it yourself or pay the installer then I dont see why it cant be done. If you have the tripple lnb going now with out any problems then the 5 lnb should...

yah, thats what I was affraid of. I really wish DirecTV would do something about this. You spend all that time getting the shows recorded and if the unit goes out you just waisted all that time not to mention favorites and season passes. Being that we cant backup our units they should be more...

Ok this is the deal. I noticed the other day that one of my turners stopped working so I called to get a replacement. The replacement came today and I noticed that I was sent out a referb hr20-700CE. The one that went out is a 700-S. Whats the difference in the 2 if any? I would really like...

No because I doubt it will do any good. If it starts happing more often then I will. For the most part I 'am very happy with the unit.

The only company that I have heard of that requires a phone line is Mastec. I have never heard of anyone getting fired because they didnt hook one up they just get a charge back. If you work for a company that will fire you over it then I would be thinking about finding another company to work for.

I just posted there to, but everyone keeps saying its something with the phone line thats not true my phone line never gets disconnected.

yes never gets disconnected. This only happens on my hr20. I have a tivo and r15 and I have never seen that message on anything but the hr20.

Lan lines are included in the basic installation if there is an existing jack within 15 feet of where the receiver sits. Now if you work for Mastec then thats a different story. As a sub we can charge for them. I do NOT push them on my customers but if they want one I have no problems running...

Can someone please tell me why I get this message? I have gotten it about 5 or 6 times now on my HR20. I get this when I try to play a show I had scheduled to record. It doesnt happen to often but when it does it sucks. I had Planet Earth scheduled to record and when I tried to watch it I got...

I have the same problem. It only seems to be durning the show not durning commericals. I have high 90's on the 101, 110 & 119 but the 99 (b) and 103 (b) have some 0's. They read like this: 6 Total at 99(b) 94 0 86 0 93 0 7 Total at 103(b) 91 0 96 16 91 0 I dont know if the 0's is normal because...
