    Odd transponder problem

    See http://www.tivofan.com/directv/channels.html This hasn't been updated in nearly two years but, to the extent it's still accurate, it indicates that there's nothing on those transponders intended for the Bay Area. Incidentally, I'm a couple hundred miles south of you in Santa Maria...

    Which D10 to keep.

    The Caller ID function works fine on the D10-100 and the D10-300. It was just the D10-200 that had issues, which is too bad since I otherwise liked it the best of the three.

    New Directv D10-100 System Manual

    And as a trivia note, the illustrations on pp. iv, 7, and 10 depict the front panel of a Philips-built D10-300 rather than the Thomson-build D10-100.

    Which D10 to keep.

    I've had all three. Started with the D10-200. I liked its physical appearance and the appearance of its menus the best. But the two units I had both had a problem with the Caller ID function. It would work for a few days and then quit. The only way to get it working again was to reset it...

    D11 Receiver?

    I was just poking around the FCC's web site and see that the FCC granted certification earlier this year to two new "D11" receivers, one made by Samsung and one made by Humax. Go to https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/cf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm and fill in the top two fields as...

    Time wrong on D10

    Well, interestingly, I came home for lunch and now the time is correct.

    Time wrong on D10

    I just added a new D10 receiver on Friday of last week and it got the "Active" software update this morning. But now the time is off, showing one hour earlier than it actually is. I checked in the menus and see that it is set to "Auto" for time zone and DST and it is correctly showing the...

    Active Update for New D10

    I just added a new D10 receiver yesterday, 6/25. Existing D10 receivers in my area had already received the software update before I installed this new unit. Any idea when the new one will get the update under these circumstances?

    Locals not showing on all receivers

    You might also try checking that the receiver is properly set for the dish type. Once, after a reset, one of mine got set to "round" dish and therefore it didn't recognize the 119 satellite where my locals are.

    Where can I buy a D10-200 receiver?

    This is ironic because I had gotten two D10-200 units with my installation and have been trying to get DirecTV to replace them with D10-100's. In my case, the Caller ID keeps failing after a few days, and will only start working again when I reset the receiver. From some replies I got in this...

    D10 Caller ID Problem

    They replied to my e-mail only to tell me to call technical support. I waited until it happened again on one of the receivers (which ended up being today). They had to transfer me to second level support and the guy told me that it's a known problem that will be fixed with a software update...

    D10 Caller ID Problem

    Yeah, it sure sounds like a software problem, since a reboot fixes it. I sent an e-mail to DirecTV this morning right before posting here. I'll see what they have to say.

    D10 Caller ID Problem

    I just started DirecTV service on 3/17, with an R10 and two D10-200 receivers. The D10's have on-screen Caller ID, but they're both having the same problem: the Caller ID works fine for a few days but then just quits working. I need to reset the receiver and then the CID will work again for a...
