I called retention to get my deal. The deal they offered me was $100.00 up front, but an immediate credit of $100 on my bill, which made it a net of $0. But when the installer did not show up when scheduled, they gave me another $100 credit to my bill. Then a week later when the installer...

One little feature I liked about the TIVO based DVR, was if there was a game or other program, currently recording, I could hit the TIVO button before I turned on my TV, and therefore I would not see any spoilers. My question is, Is there any way to do this with the HR-20? I tried hitting...

Well, I did get my new HR20 this past Saturday. I had been on a waiting list for about 2 months. The install went great. No problems. I was concerned because the installer was only able to get a signal strenght of around 75 on his meter. However he said that is very good. I guess he is...

Hopefully, I will be getting my HR-20 tomorrow. Right now I have the HD Tivo based DVR (HR10 I believe). Is there a review of the HR-20 that compares features of the two DVR's? I would like to know what the non-tivo based unit can do that the TIVO can't, and vice-versa. Or is someone can...

I live in Slidell (76234). Which is about 12 miles northeast of Decatur. I live in the middle of nowhere, so there is absolutely no restrictions to putting up an antenna. I just thought that maximum range for an antenna was about 60 miles. I will have to check out the suggestions above.

Is there any way that I can get ABC HD through Direct Tv? I live 70 miles from the broadcast towers, so OTA is out of the question. I of course have been denied waivers from WFAA, even though I was granted waivers on all other stations. And wouldn't you know abc is the one station not...

This is from an article I just read on SI.com. It sounds like to me, that there will be no more local black-outs next year. Maybe I am just dreaming. What do you think? The Dish On NFL Blackouts Great news for dish TV fans. In a blind fury because Sunday's Miami-Tampa Bay game was...

Can someone tell me if there will be any games broadcast in HD if I subscribe to the Center Ice Package? I notice there is some games appearing on channel 95, but is that just because Center Ice is free right now? I tried calling a direct tv CSR but as usual they were clueless. :confused:

Is there an easy (and cheap) way to expand the 2 cables I have in my living room into 3? Outside of my house I am already using a 3-8 converter, and all my 8 lines are being used. I would like to be able to have 2 lines for my non-hd tivo, and an additional line for my HD Box. I would even...

My TV is a Mitsubishi 55" Rear Projection CRT. Sorry, but I can't remember the exact model number. When a 720 signal is sent to it, the screen starts flashing, and displaying all kinds of weird images. Similar to using a refresh-rate on a computer monitor that is not supported.

Just got my R-10 hooked up, and I have a couple of questions. 1. Is there a caller id function for this box? 2. My old stand-alone Tivo would allow me to choose recording quality. Is there a way to do this on the R-10 or is all programs recorded on highest quality. 3. Is there a way...

When I set up my box, I set the resolution on 1080i/480ip. I could not use native mode, since my tv does not support 720. Now when I switch between hd and non hd channels, I have to use the format button on my remote to choose the correct resolution. Is there a way to for the box to...

Here is my situation: I am moving to my new house (Where cable is not available), so I am planning on getting D*. I live too far away from station broadcasts (about 70 miles) to be able to recieve OTA HD. However since I live in the Dallas/Fort Worth market area, I should be eligible for HD...

Can anyone tell me if my TIVO standalone dvr will work, until the Voom DVR is available. I realize the recordings will not be in HD, but will it even record? Also, does TIVO get guide data from VOOM? BTW, When I ordered my service last night, the CSR told me the DVR would be available...

About to Get Voom Thinking about getting voom, and would like to know what Kind of reception I should get OTA. (Which channels, quality etc...). I live in Far North Fort Worth, In the Summerfields Area. (Basicly next to the high school) Also, I see people talking about different types of...

I was about to get Voom. I called and talked to the CSR to order, but backed out at the last second. The reason for this is that I would have to commit to a 6 month contract without ever seeing what the quality would be like. Was the CSR correct in saying that there is no 2 or 3 day trial...
