    Toshiba 46H84 RPTV

    Anyone have any comments on this TV? I see it's on sale at Best Buy for $999 right now. Good PQ? Any serious glare issues? Thanks.

    FCC Speeds up DTV Transition...

    Am I correct in my understanding that retailers will not be able to sell 36" and larger TV's with only an NTSC tuner after June 30th of this year? I would assume this would mean that there would be significant discounts on products such as the Toshiba 46H84 in the days leading up to this deadline?

    Free MLB Extra Innings??

    Iceberg, I didn't mean to sound as though I didn't appreciate your help. I just didn't know if you were aware that WGN only shows half the games. Anyway, the only reason I was asking is because they have given me a free tivo and a free basic receiver ($150 worth of equipment) in the past 6...

    Free MLB Extra Innings??

    Any possibility that I could get MLB Extra Innings free if I called the retention line and agreed to a contract or something? I'm about one month into a one-year commitment right now. I've been a D* customer for about 2 1/2 years now. I just really want to see all the Cubs games but can't...

    Direct C/S--Thanks!!

    Would I be able to watch Cubs games on Comcast Sports Chicago if I live in Louisville, KY? I was able to watch the games on Fox Sports Net Chicago last year when I lived in Indianapolis, IN. I don't currently have the sports package.

    Poor SD Picture Quality

    Hello everyone, I have noticed decreased picture quality recently mainly on my local channels (namely ABC). Faint vertical-scrolling lines are visible in the background of the picture. This is especially noticeable on darker backgrounds. I am having the same issue on two separate TV's, so...

    SD DVR with HDTV

    Hello, I currently has a standard def DVR and am looking at the possibility of buying an HDTV with a built-in tuner. At this time, I am happy with my DVR and do not want to shell out all the cash for an HD DVR. Would the HD channels that I could get OTA appear on my Directv channel guide...

    VERY frustrated with Directv

    Thanks to everyone for all the help. I do know that my receivers should be compatible (it does have an option for an oval dish on the setup screen, which has been selected). Plus, the fact that it does work properly and pulls in locals after a reboot tells me it must just be some kind of...

    VERY frustrated with Directv

    Thanks for all your help. I just set up an appointment for Directv to come out and replace the LNB's. Hopefully that will help. One other question though -- would it be possible that older receivers have compatibility issues or anything like that? The two receivers I have used are Panasonics...

    VERY frustrated with Directv

    What is the center conductor?? Would I find this by the receiver or the dish?? Thanks.

    VERY frustrated with Directv

    Yeah, it is a triple LNB -- that's needed to receive locals in my area. Do you think the dish itself may need to be replaced? New cable was run so I know that shouldn't be the problem. Thanks.

    VERY frustrated with Directv

    Hello, I have been a Directv subscriber for over 3 years now, and have been very happy with the service until about a month ago. We just moved from Indianapolis, IN to Louisville, KY and utilized the Movers Connection to install a new dish, etc. We have a standard def DVR in our family room...
