In Tucson, I get 90+ on 7 TPs. 3 are for Phoenix, 2 are for Tucson, 1 for El Paso, and I haven't figured out the last one. Strange that El Paso booms in here, yet Albequrque has 0 strength.
Although the speed of the HR24 is a bit better than the older receivers, the user interface is exactly the same. I wouldn't be too upset with a re-furb if I got a good deal on installation.
Most hotel rooms don't offer an HD experience with home theater sound. It's a completely different experience and expectation. Must also wait to see the content before assuming it is the same service.
I was with Dish for 5 years. When I switched to DirecTV, it took a while to adjust. Now, when I visit a house with a Dish remote, my brain freezes constantly. It's more of what you are used to than anything else. The only button I dislike for location is the "Active" button. I would be...
The article states they only get a partial refund and that 43% is non-refundable. So, they pay a billion dollars and get $670mm back. That really sounds like a poor negotiation point to me.
Yes. Very far behind. DirecTV has no intentions of adding Netflix to their DVR so that it can cannibolize it's PPV and Premiums. The benefit for YouTube will be for them to utilize that platform to have trailers for their movies.
Honestly Bob, you're going to get bored really quick! I had Dish for over 6 years before going to DirecTV in 2005. With Dish, it felt like I needed to have a little bit of tech skills to make everything work right. I needed switches here, an extra dish there. The boxes needed resetting. If...
Walmart is selling the internal Seagate 7200 RPM 1 TB drive for $80. Took about 15 minutes to swap it out. No extra wires, noise or boxes to deal with and the drive comes with a 5 year warranty.
If you went by that logic, then cable and Dish Network would both carry them across all of the MLB territory. There are rings of service available for a price. As a provider of services, Dish/DirecTV/Cable can decide how many rings of service they wish to provide. In the case of the Giants...
I'm really curious to hear from ROKU fans. I never heard a side by side comparison in an HD setting. I'm thinking of going MLB.TV instead of EI as well. The MLB app on the iPhone also gives you streaming video, if you are a Premium customer. Still a bit undecided.
You are only going to find yourself endlessly frustrated as you try to resolve this issue. The fact of the matter is...MLB dictates the boundries. DirecTV would have to pay a higher price to allow the A's to be broadcast in Oregon. They choose not to pay more to Comcast for that right so you...
1) Didn't know there was a "news" audio station :p
2) How do they do the audio news without talking? :p
The changeover is terrible. Between the poor execution of audio, and the playlists not coming close to what used to be, I am very unhappy. I just can't believe DirecTV put out a bulletin...
I've never heard of a 36 month contract. Usually, if your actions require a commitment it either starts a new clock or runs concurrent with your existing agreement. Whichever method lasts the longest will be the method used.
It is disappointing that DirecTV charges $199 to lease a DVR, then...
