I would take a look at the new customer pricing at DirecTV.com. Looks like you might get better pricing going through DirecTV and not bundling (or bundling after the fact). If you order Xtra online right now you can get it for $34.99 a month for 12 months, a much better price. DirecTV will have...

The HR24 has a built in DECA, but not CCK. The HR24 will not share it's Ethernet connection with over receivers. The H25 can't use the HR24s Ethernet connection. If you have an HR24, you should have a CCK installed.

I don't either. There was only one coax line where the HR34 was going so the installer installed a splitter than created 2 short coax cables to go from the 2 way splitter to the HR34 and CCK. What a waste of work when he could have just connected an ethernet cable and been done. Oh well, I get...

Ultimately, I would guest making sure you have at least one CCK on your network weather it is the wired CCK, wireless CCK, or the CCK built into the HR34/44. That way newer devices like the C31 and most importantly the H25 have access to the Internet. I figure well see more and more IRDs without...

The CCK just converts Ethernet to DECA to be carried over coax. If you have Ethernet run to each box, you re correct, you don't need the CCK. I let the installer connect a CCK for me and them I removed it. I use my HR34 to connect the rest of my receivers to the Internet using its built in CCK.

I haven't had any recording issues with my HR34. I can't recall a program that hasn't recorded correctly or in its entirety. The C31 client is the smallest receiver DirecTV has. If you want to avoid using the HR34, you can purchase an H25 at the same cost (upfront and money). The H25 is slightly...

Anytime you get a Genie you are required to sign a new 2 year agreement.

You would gain 5 additional, for a total of 9 recording slots. 5 tuners on the Genie and 2 on each of the HR24 and HR23.

Any idea which Ohio Markets by chance?

Could it be that your dish needs aligned? If you are getting pixelation, your signal might be weak. Go to Menu-> Settings-> Setup-> Satellite-> Signal Strength. Make sure most of your numbers are above 70. It is okay if you see 2 or 3 zeros. It is common to see zeros. Check all sats.

The problem with Dish Networks DVRS is that if two TV are connected, essentially, each TV is getting ONE tuner where as with D* each room gets two tuners. Dish is just trying to keep it cheap by using one box for two rooms. I personally would rather have two tuners per TV rather than one.

All your calculations are if you have premir. If you have any other package then DirecTV has a better deal.

No major differance. The 100 gets software later. The 100 is made by RCA/Thomson and the 700 is made by Pace. Both are very capable Machines.

There are what they call dish warmers that heat up your dish and melts snow when it is cold. Do a google for dish warmer and you can purchase one and mount it on the back of the dish.

DirecTV is 100% digital. Time Warner is not. Time warner is one of the lowest rated cable companies by JD Power while DirecTV is always number 1 or2. Directv turns out to be cheaper in the end. I just went online to compare pricing and to get the equivalent setup I have now. I currently have 3...

Use the 101 and 119. First get the 101 on and then the 119. If both the 101 and 119 are peaked so is the 110.

At least they had Alison Krauss on. It was worth it for that!

He is getting the pixels because that is what the receiver is outputting to the TV. The TV can only display as good of a picture as it receives and to be frank, directv picture is crap and so it will look like crap on any TV.

Scott, just a quick thing to change in your review, it is the H20, not the D20.

Picture quality won't be degraded by the dish first off... It's digital, you either get the signal or you don't. There is no real advantage except cosmetic and weight wise if it is on your roof. The AT9 5LNB is slightly harder to align than the slimline. A good installer and do an excellent job...

The cables should be grounded.

Is directv showing the launch?

Nothing above 2150MHz.

Tailgate= RV!

About the 5 LNB dish. You won't get an extra one, they just say that in case you need one installed. If you already have one, they don't give you another.
