Well I'm am idiot? I think the thing that made me the most upset was the tech had to look at his phone to figure out what to do next. I went online with dtv tonight and bitched about the ota since I bought the am21 from dtv and they promised to send out a "Senior tech" for me. So we will...

Thank you guys for all your feedback. Let me tell you about my nightmare now. They sent me an hr44 so I got online and said this wasn't any upgrade. They then apologized and scheduled a tech to come out and replaced my hr44 with..... an hs17. So now I no longer have ota because my am21...

They sending it in the mail. Said it would be 24 hours.

HI Guys, My HR44/500 is overheating so I called today and they are sending me what they described as a new "Upgraded" receiver. Does anyone know what model this one is?

Thank you all for your responses. I spoke with DTV yesterday to remove 2 older receivers that were scrapped when I went with the Whole Home DVR setup. They are sending me the CCK and I will be set. Thanks again!

I have 3 HR20-700s, 1 HR24-500 and 2 H25-100s. The HR20-700s have the adapter in the back that plugs into the ethernet ports.

I do have a swim. What is a CCK?

Hello, I have a recent install of a whole home dvr and I have an ethernet connection available to plug into my HR24/500. So I plugged the ethernet into it and lost the other receivers on the whole home network. Is the network option no longer available when using a whole home setup? I used...

Hello all. I have some mover connection questions. I will be moving into an older home at the end of September that will need cabling for DTV. How many runs will the installer install for free and will it be a single wire install? I have 2 DVRs (HR20-700s) 1 H20-100 and 2 D11s. Will those...

No the older receivers are all directv receivers.

Hello All, I have a question regarding an swm8 switch and a slimline install. Right now the setup I have is a slimline dish with a 6x8 switch running 8 lines into my house. I have an hr20-700 in the family room with 2 lines to it, an h20 in my bedroom with 1 line to it, and 3 older...

Top Gear on the 101 With Top Gear from BBCAmerica airing on the 101 last night in HD, is there any chance that BBCAmerica could be the next HD channel added?

I called today to see if I could verify that it was coming back in March. The CSR said that Comcast owns VS and it was not coming back and since I already have the sports pack, she gave me 3 months of the Starz superpack which still doesn't make up for no WEC but it helps.

right now it's a slimline 3lnb, I want to replace it with a slimline 5lnb.

How hard is this? Is it something that I can do without needed to repoint the dish. Is it just a swapout?
