    Need help on a mad scientist project - portable Antenna cartop mount

    Since i finally dropped satellite, i have a need to rebuild my tailgating TV setup (obviously OTA only). I'm fairly certain I'm going to try a Televes DiNova Boss Mix as an antenna, with it's built-in preamp and fairly rugged construction, along with modest size - seems like the perfect...

    Where is the 2017 4K sports content?

    I'm wondering if something is up - there is a noted lack of 4k content in the upcoming page: Upcoming Events in 4K ...where is the content they had last year? 1) No premier league games scheduled? (these start this weekend!) 2) Notre Dame football? 3) FOX college stuff?

    Wow - software download hit my HR44 like a ton of bricks this morning...

    1) Blew away HD channels - needed to rerun Sat setup 2) Blew away OTA AM21 stuff - same for antenna 3) WHAT NUMBSKULL DOES A NATIONAL ROLLOUT IN A BLIZZARD???????? Morons. D* is making me lose confidence daily.

    My AM21 might be giving up ghost :(

    Really strange AM21 issue being seen with my HR44. Everyone once in a while, I'll get searching for signal errors. Mind you, these are channels that normally get 100% on the meters. A re-initialization of the OTA channels fixes most of the time. I'll compare it against my TV tuner the next...

    DirecTV removes OTA scanning from Genies? WTF!

    Amazing. The latest genie software removes scanning, and implements D*'s inferior "solution" Ridiculous - Anyone who uses this should be livid!

    Contemplating a WHDVR "upgrade"

    So - I've long had diplexed OTA on my SWM system. I have CAT5 to 2 of my 3 receivers, and a double RG6 run to at least one, if not 2, of my receivers. I've been thinking of going to a DECA cloud for a while now. Somewhat because I would like to go to whole home DVR again (yes, I've been a...

    DirecTV's annoying stance on replacements for HDMI issues...

    Seen references to this from time to time, needs its own thread... CSR's have been instructed to NOT replace receivers with HDMI issues only. There is very clearly a script in play to suggest a component-only connection. Clearly, for the technically-minded here, you can see this is WRONG...
