    Giving away. That's at the top of the lake, roughly 1.5-2 hours?

    Looking to get rid of my toroidal satellite dish

    I know this isn't the classified area, but I would hate to scrap this thing for aluminum. Anyone in South Florida want it? I can meet you near TPK / Glades. I also have a ton of LNBFs and other misc stuff for whomever gets it to take as well. Would rather all this go to a good home...

    Looking to get another HD DVR

    Thanks, we apparently don't have much leverage. Community pays for our service (70-80 bux per home I believe), so we only pay out of pocket under 20 bux. Not like I can cancel due to the community involvement, so 199 it was & ordered. Was hoping there was somewhere online that had it cheaper...

    Looking to get another HD DVR

    I don't believe we are under contract, we've had directv for 2-3 years now. Have 1 HD DVR & 1 SD DVR. My community has a separate company that gets us directv, so I can't make any changes online, have to call or buy directly. Looking to upgrade to SD DVR.

    Looking to get another HD DVR

    How/Where can I get the best deal? Called Directv they just offered me one for over 200 bux, I remember there use to be the new box for 99 or 199? Thanks!

    Doh of all the days.. drive crashed on dvr

    Yeah, thx. The worst part is we're in the middle of switching to a private company that does our directv for the community, which means another layer between this setup. Hopefully we'll get a new box in a few days. On the plus side the performance on this box was pretty bad for a long time...
