    DIRECTV ultimate free 3 month offer

    Got a “special offer for you” on channel 9758, up to 3 months of DIRECTV ultimate movie package. Went to the website and the offer didn’t work. Has anyone gotten this offer to work?

    The Movie Channel

    Thank you! At this point will probably just do Showtime/Paramount+ package, although TMC often has some rare movies you can't even find on streaming.

    The Movie Channel

    Can you get The Movie Channel on its own or do you need to first subscribe to Showtime? Had a hard time explaining this to the call center. They kept thinking we wanted the movies extra pack!

    HR 54 client install

    Sorry for the delay. We have a HR 54 sitting by itself (no TV) and two receivers, C61K-700 and an old HD receiver.

    Moving HR54 server

    Yep, the 4k mini genie is going to the second floor. Believe the H54 is self powered, since there’s no power supply like that. We called for a Gemini but they offered the C61K instead! Thanks all, we’ll probably just swap the two on the outside splitter.

    Moving HR54 server

    Directv installed our main HR 54 on our second floor and we want to move it to the basement to use a 4K genie mini. Can we simply swap the positions of the two wires on the outside splitter so the powered one goes to the basement? Is that safe since it’s grounded? They wanted at least $49 to...
