Ok, so today DirecTV was supposed to come move my service to my new apartment. The installer calls me before the install and asks if I've gotten permission to drill holes from outside. I said no and said that I'd be fine with running a flat coax under the window sill, just like I had done at my...

I did a search and didn't find a thread on this, which I found surprising. So I'm sorry if this is old news. My R15 shows it received 0x10FA at 3:28am on 1/17. I noticed the guide is noticeably faster when using page up/down, as well as some changes in the menu interfaces, specifically record...

Ok, so I'm looking to get the Phase III dish and an HD receiever. One question though, is one brand of dish any better than another? I mean, they all look exactly the same, well, except the TERK one, the pictures make it look almost black in color. eBay has some great deals on them, I can walk...
