    OK all you dtv pros

    Because if you fall within the Portland DMA you will be getting Portland local channels in HD from the 5 lnb dish. When you say Northern Maine do you mean the "county"?

    Grounding Antenna

    The whole idea of grounding an antenna is so that electrical charges from lightning strikes do not enter the home. With your antenna being inside the attic, if it gets struck by lightning in there, then god just doesn't like you! I wouldn't bother grounding something that is already in your house.

    HR20 vs HR10 phone hookup

    No it doesn't. The HR-10 was more tivo than it was a directv ird and needed to call Tivo to activate it's DVR functions. The HR-20 is all D* box needing only to call for PPV orders.

    Disabling R15 2nd tuner input.

    If you reboot the r-15 with only one line plugged in it will sense that it only has one line and shut the other tuner down without displaying the SFSS message. That is only if the line is a direct run from either a correctly configured multiswitch or LNB (in other words...splitters do not work...

    Is the HD pack really not part of Total Choice Premier?

    I have almost made the TC Premiere plunge several times and then I remember that it doesn't include the HD pack and I back off. If they included it I would have it instead of turning my HBO off a few times a year when Deadwood and Sopranos end.

    Still not working. ..Need help pleaseeeeeeee

    Use transponder 1 when you point the dish and make sure you're set to round dish and looking at the 101 satellite. Move methodically up and down and then from left to right until you have signal on transpoder 1. When it lights up lock it down and download the program guide.

    Need advance info on upcoming install

    HDMI cables are very expensive and not supplied by D* unless you buy an HR-10 250. Unless the technician is feeling Christmasy I would have one on hand if you want one installed.

    Add used DSR708

    Make sure both accounts are paid up to date and deactivate both receivers. Call directv and tell them the dsr708 is a receiver you would like to add to your account. No need to tell them any history on the receiver. Just activate it with the card that came with it. Then turn on DVR services...

    hd dish problems

    Keep in mind you will also need 4 lines feeding that new 6x8 from the dish instead of the 2 you currently have.

    directv on houseboat

    If you can handle installing the dish yourself then just bring a receiver to your boat, install the dish on the dock and run the line onboard. Call directv and activate your receiver and make no mention at all about it not being at your house. It's really quite simple. All you need is a round...

    Another H-20 issue

    Try this one last attempt to save this refurb. Go to setting-reset-reset everything and let it reboot. After it reboots hit the little red button to cause it to reboot again. When the blue screen comes up that reads "hello. your directv receiver is starting up" type in 0 2 4 6 8. This...

    Is this a multiswitch problem? (wrong channels)

    If you don't have HD or Paratodos you could just repeat satellite setup and set the dish to round. That'll solve the problem from the couch.

    Slimline Dish

    The reason for this second generation dish is most likely a financial one. The dithering (azimuth fine-tune knob) on the first generation ka/ku was implemented because Directv wasn't sure how the 99 sat would come into play with the 5 lnb configuration. Now that it is live and they see there...

    Warning.....do Not Force Download The New H20 Firmware......

    If you're able try this: go to menu-setup-settings-reset-reset everything and repeat guided set up. Bet this fixes it. After forcing the download I lost all of my 103 channels and the only thing that brought them back was to reset everything which oddly enough still has the 14 software in tack.

    Rsn And Nesnhd Alert!!!!! OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE!

    I've been getting the D-Rays and Marlins games on channel 96 in Tampa all month long but what I really want is a full time NATIONAL NESNHD. My only hope is that since New England is so large that it will be put on a national feed to lessen the confusion caused by having 6 spotbeams.

    NESN HD Possibly on its way?

    check channel 96.. It is up and they are testing it right now. The channel info in the guide is calling it FSN HD here in FL so I'm assuming you will have NESN HD in NE.

    Installation of 95 sat dish - help needed

    No it will not. You have to get an international dish. Directv receivers will not function without the 101 being tuned in. The int'l dish has two lnb's. The standard 101 lnb and then the c-band type 95 lnb. A regular directv dish could never tune in the 95.

    Installation of 95 sat dish - help needed

    Do you have the instruction booklet that came with the dish? This is vital as it has a chart that will guide you with your settings. Set the dish accordingly and then find the 101 sat and peak it. If you're using a meter, you must then switch the meter over to the 95 LNB output and peak the...
