A Directv technician came by and found that a bush was blocking the reception. Using the LNB as a reference there was nothing blocking the signal. The technician indicated that this was not correct. The actual area of signal is to the left. He said that most technicians don't know this; neither...

I have three Directv receivers. On some channels , such as 202, the 771 dialogue box comes up indicating signal loss. On other channels, such as 356, this never happens. All of my connections are tight and my dish is not obstructed. The sky is clear. This problem started about a month ago. Does...

I have an HR 24 receiver which is connected to a powered splitter with the output provided to three different rooms. I also have a Genie HR 44. Directv is sending me 2 minis to connect to the HR 44. Questions: 1. Does connecting the mini to the HR 44 mean that the HDMI signal will be available...

Thanks for the clarification. I know there's no point in ranting about the MLB blackout rules. But in this era where MLB is looking for ways to spark more fan interest (pitch clocks, no pitches on intentional walks, etc.) you would think they would take a look at traditions like blackouts that...

I live on the Big Island and have both Directv and cable. Dodgers and Angels games are blacked out on Directv but not cable. What's going on?

I tried the "I don't know" option a variety of times and that didn't work either.

I had a new Genie installed yesterday and tried to program the remote to turn my Panasonic TV on and off. It failed. I spoke with Directv who indicated that my Genie remote would not work with my TV. Is there a workaround I can use? ps: My Panasonic TV model # is included in the Genie list...

They have not changed the LNB and don't appear to want to do anything. I have been a Directv subscriber for a long time. I spend more than $200/month for my programming. I don't understand why they are treating me in such a shabby manner.

It's a swim. Assuming you are referring to signal strength, the transponders all register 95-99.

I have three HR24's connected to the same satellite dish. None of them work properly. On the worse one the picture freezes sometimes every day or night. As such, programs are rarely recorded. Sometime an error message comes on indicating that the signal has been lost. I've checked the...

Thanks so much. I'll pass on the Genie package.

I have two satellite feeds coming into my home, which are connected to a SWM at the dish. One feed connects to an HR-24 in the living room and services only that TV. The other feed runs to an entertainment room where it connects to another HR-24. The signal is then split via a Monoprice 4x4 HDMI...

Thanks Charper 1.

I just ordered a third Directv HDDVR for a new guesthouse I had built. However, it has no telephone line. I forgot that Directv requires this. I read somewhere that I can still receive the Directv signal without the telephone line but cannot record programming. If this is the case, should I...

I haven't purchased the Peerless articulating wall mount yet. I was waiting for advice from this forum. I checked some other Peerless models and found one (Model SA752PU) That mounts vertically on one stud with four bolts. Since my "stud" is a 4x4 do you think this Peerless mount will be ok...

Thanks for the info. I think I'll go with the Peerless mount. My joists are 24" on center. Therefore, I can only tap into one of them. I'll use the Togglers as well. Unfortunately, the Peerless articulating arm I'm planning to purchase is designed for studs that are the usual 16" on center. The...

I don't have room below the TV for a table or desk to place the HDTV receiver. I need a wall mount to place the receiver on. I see that Peerless makes one (Model PS200). Does anyone have any experience with this or any other model. Thanks, Dennis

I am mounting a 47" HDTV on the wall using an articulating wall mount. I would like to mount the Directv receiver just below it so I can hide the wires behind the tv. I think that if you center the mount under the receiver it wouldn't be attached to a stud and some type of wall anchors would be...

Hi Jimbo. I sent you a PM regarding which RG 6 cable to purchase from Monoprice. Thanks, Dennis

Thanks Jimbo.

Currently, I have two separate Directv feeds to different rooms in my home. Both are connected to HR24's. One feed goes into an exercise room where it is connected to an HDMI powered splitter so that the HD signal is transmitted to a bedroom. The other feed goes directly to my living room and...

I just ordered the Cinema Connection Kit from Directv. They're going to have a professional installer connect it even though it's considered a "self installation" device. There's no charge for either the device or the installation. I don't know why . . .Maybe it's because my Directv bill is...

Bob: I have two HDDVR's, both HR 24's. However, I only want to download VOD programming to the one in the living room. I printed the Cinema Connection Kit installation manual off the Directv website. The installation looks pretty simple. Dennis

Thanks to everyone. We have a Belkin router into which the internet feeds. This allows all of our other computers plus my Ipad to receive the internet signal without being attached to any wires. Does this mean that my router is wireless? Thanks again Obviously, I'm not a technical wizard. But...

I'm a new subscriber to Directv and want to record some old episodes of Suits (on USA). They're only available on VOD, which I selected. It indicates that the episodes are available to download. I don't know how to do this. Does my receiver need to be connected to the internet? If so, can...
