    Considering getting into DIRECTV

    You won't get a HDMI or DVI cable in the H20 box. Radio Shack have good quality HDMI cables at a reasonable price. Digital is digital so no need to over buy.

    How far down the DMA list?

    Hi, I'm probably not using the correct terminology so apologies up front. So, I live in Palm Springs and the DMA # is 154. I think we're rising through the ranks as more people move to the area - we will probably be in the top 150 when the rankings are published again later in the...

    What will you do if D* doesn't announce new national HD channels today???

    Just to add salt to the wound Dish just added 5 HD channels to their Voom package. Kind of a rag-tag bunch of channels but they are boasting that they have twice the number of HD channels (non local) than any other satellite network. I hope D* are listening...

    What will you do if D* doesn't announce new national HD channels today???

    The D* press release from two days ago mentioned all sorts of fluff (dating, video cameras in video games) and more HD locals but no mention of national HD channels. I am in the same situation as Fgsilva so.... Yours, Bitterly Disappointed

    HD Locals in Palm Springs....

    Hi, I see a lot of mention of HD locals being rolled out in large markets around the country. I also see that such and such a market is so and so number in 'the list'. I presume the list is based on market size. So, where can I find the list so I can check out where PS is in the list...

    Universal Remote?

    Harmony 688 is very easy to program at the Harmony / Logitech website and it is definitely wife-friendly. I use the regular remotes if I need to screw around with something specific on the device, usually setup when I change something. Otherwise the Harmony does everything. My only...

    I just came off the phone after calling Dish to buy a 942 for my new home. They tell me that they cannot sell me this unit because it is too expensive (!). They referred me to a retailer - there are no retailers withing 50+ miles of my home and they have never heard of a 942. I am moving...
