    77TA; Thanks for the clarification that there is a difference between subscription service and FTA and that separate boxes will be needed. I know you listed several, Do you have a favorite?

    Is i all still worth it?

    Turbosat; I need to find a cord for the 920 so I will get on that right away to check for the unit address. Sorry to sound so ignorant but I am.

    D-Tv R15 DVR + DVD?

    “OK” I finally step into the 20th century and bought a DVR. Sorry if this question has already been asked, but I couldn’t find it. I already have some shows recorded that I would like to keep. Is there a way to transfer the recordings to a DVD?

    What is the full price on a Directv DVR (model r15)? Being charged a leasing fee!!

    “OK” I just went through this with “D”. You can own your receiver. The catch is you have to pay the right price for it or at least tell them what you paid. It must be full retail $399.00. If you are an existing customer you can keep you programming as it is or make any changes that you wish to...
