    End Of Directv H10

    Its power supply died a few years back and I intended on getting another and swapping parts around, but now it looks like its too late. It's not too late! Send shipping money and I'll send you mine. lol. Johnnybeach

    End Of Directv H10

    Sorry, but somebody from CA, with all its growing problems, saying some OTHER state is being run by the wrong people... I never said the entire STATE was being run by the wrong people. Only that the powers that be should find another way to recycle. As far as Venice Beach is concerned, the...

    End Of Directv H10

    Here is what I'm talking about for recycling. "Too Toxic To Trash". Every month or so they have these events at various locations around the county. This time, along with my precious Directv receivers and remotes, I'm dropping off a computer PSU, flashlight batteries, toaster, paint, rust...

    In my area there are recycle drives where you can drive through and leave anything you don't want. Johnnybeach

    End Of Directv H10

    I'll probably drop them off at Best Buy or some other electronic recycle. I can take them in with my dead batteries, old oil, fluorescent lights etc. Johnnybeach

    I don't suppose there is anything I can do with the two boxes I have? Johnnybeach

    End Of Directv H10

    I knew it was old stuff when I picked it up at a swap meet but I thought it was really neat to put up a dish on my house and get the OTA. I've outgrown it now. Johnnybeach

    End Of Directv H10

    The Directv H10 receiver will no longer find satellite signals. Nothing (n/a) on any transponders. It's done. I used it for finding programs and for auto tuning. My Spectrum TV has all the off-air stations except about three but my TVs pick up the stations anyway. I usually look up...

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    I just learned that Samsung will develop a "micro-led" that is better than the LG OLED and with no burn-in and will do 8K or better and I think I'll wait for that which might take two or three years but my 55" LG TV will be OK for me until then. Johnnybeach

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    I've looked at TVs on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace has tons of them. I'll just bide my time before I pull the trigger. I'm gravitating toward a Samsung UHD 4k 8Series and looked at curved. I am thinking Samsung would be the best. Johnnybeach

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    I suppose you're right that I should buy a new TV but it's just not in my budget just yet. Johnnybeach

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    I found the Digital Stream DTX9950 Analog Pass-Through converter box among all my souvenirs in the garage and it will work but the EPG is only one station at a time whereas the H10 shows me six. Even converter boxes with HDMI do only one at a time. Mine doesn't have Auto-tune but the ones with...

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    A possible solution: I have, somewhere in the garage and not in the place I thought it was, is a digital to analog converter box by Digital Stream. I looked it up on Google and it DOES have Autotune and EPG. I'll look for it tomorrow. I hope I can find it and try it out. Johnnybeach

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    When the time comes I'll just use Titantv to see what's on TV. I'm not going to pay a subscription to anyone and I wonder if the EPG on a TV is all that great anyway. Autotune and EPG isn't absolutely necessarily that I would need to pay more for either a service or a new TV. Johnnybeach

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    My H10s are plugged into a Directv dish as well as an antenna and no D* subscription. I think for OTA it is better that a TV EPG and I like the Autotune. I am very comfortable with and I want to keep it as long as I can. I'll unplug the satellite and see what happens but without it how would...

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    The main reason I keep buying the H10 is the EPG and AUTOTUNE. I drive it into the ground like a used car. Johnnybeach

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    I wonder if there is a market for the H10 unless someone already has a dish and needs a replacement box like I did. I might just play out the situation with Directv and it's support until it finally all ends and then go from there. Johnnybeach

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    If I wanted Directv service I would want a new box and not a H10. Johnnybeach

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    I've owned about five boxes over the last few years and no one gave them to me. I bought them and I've never activated them. I only used them for OTA and the EPG. I have two that are still usable but at what I paid and after depreciation they're not worth much, maybe $20.00 each, so it is...

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    I just hate to get rid of my 55" LG because it otherwise has a good picture and is somewhat Smart. It gives Info about a program that I can scroll up and down to the next channel. It is also hooked up to a computer that I can access TitanTV to see what's on. It doesn't Autotune. Then, I...

    Upgrade from H10 for OTA?

    OK, thanks for the heads up. I'll just have to wrap my mind around it and figure out how get what I want. Tivo and Tablo have subscriptions and I don't want to pay anything. Thanks, Johnnybeach
