    What do I get with conversion to SWM?

    I have two HR20s and a H10. If I converted from a WB68 to SWM, is there really any benefit besides having to run only one coax to each HR20 and being able to remove the BBCs? Reckon it's worth the trouble?

    Any freebies on 95 deg?

    I noticed this week that the AU9 dish has a place for the 95 deg LNB to go? Wondering if one received that sat, if there would be any freebie channels to be had? Don't care what content. Even free religious, foreign chans would be interesting :)

    NCIS - HR20 audio captioning

    Have an HR20 with the latest 11B software release. Last night, we watched NCIS that was recorded Tuesday 1/23. After the third commercial break (roughly at the half hour mark) we noticed that that whole segment had audio captioning or audio tips, or whatever you call the audio help for vision...

    Couple of HR20 questions

    Have had my HR20 for 3 days now. Just a couple of questions to make sure I'm not missing something... The sound effects tab on the Audio menu is grayed out. Are there no audio effects at this time? When FF or RW on recorded programs, unlike the TIVO units, the receiver does not back up a...

    As we all know, the shuttle launched tonight as advertised. I've done all of the usual research and have not found any HD broadcast of the launch. Anyone know any broadcast plans? Geez, I'd love to see it!

    HR10-250 Satellite channel screwed up

    I've had my HR10-250 for a little over a year now. It downloaded the 6.3 software within the last month. Both before and after the software update, the unit has always had an intermittent problem in that a show scheduled to be recorded via the dish will fail as the channel is nothing but...

    Toshiba 62MX195

    Has any one seen a 62MX195 in person yet? It looks to have everything I want in my next HDTV, but I cannot find a local store that has one. I can have one ordered, but I hate to do that sight unseen. If anyone has personal experience, I'd appreciate your comments.

    Drop outs in WOrld Series last night

    I have a HR10-250 and noticed several very brief drop outs in the HD signal on FOX East last night on channel 88. The screen would freeze for 1/4 second, go black for 1/2 second, and then return to normal. I have seen similar occurences with my H10. Is this happening to everyone or might I...

    D* service plan

    As I am going to be getting the HD DVR next month from D*, I am now contemplating signing up for their hardware coverage. How do they handle swapping out a defective HD unit? Do they cross ship them or does someone come out to the house with the new unit?

    MY NFL STSF deal

    As planned all along, I called D* yesterday to complain about my loss of HD NFL and to see what they could do for me. I acted SHOCKED to find out they had taken it away from me :) I first called the regular number and the CSR said all he could do is bill me $49 instead of $99 for it. I told...

    DTC210 problem getting 72.5 locals & HD

    Let me run this by y'all and see if it rings any bells. I've got a DTC210 and get my locals on 72.5. Has worked fine since I subbed to my locals about 6 months ago. Two weeks ago, my locals disappeared, but only on that one receiver. I ran an auto detect on the dish configuration and they...
