    HR-20 Dead On Arrival

    When I got my HR20 installed, the installer told me that the failure rate of the units out of the box was 50%. And that's why when he goes to do an install of the HR20 he takes at least 2 units for each install.

    $299 HD-DVR w/ $100 rebate

    Is this deal still being offered? Does anybody know if this deal is still being offered. I called the customer retention number today (05/14/2006) and the CSR said she didn't know what I was talking about. Actually she said, "That price is ridiculous!".

    Digital audio breakup on Hughes HD receiver

    Ken, I just got my D* system installed this weekend with a Hughes HTL-HD receiver. The only channel I noticed any problems as far as audio is ESPN HD. The audio was garbled at times when switching to ESPN HD. I then switched to another channel and then back. After that the audio seemed...

    stb boxes

    I am a real novice with HD and D*, but after reading many posts. It is my understanding that the PQ of most D* HD receivers are comparable. I believe the differentiating factor are the options the various receivers offer. But like I said, I am a novice so I may be sorely wrong. Please...

    Super Stupid Newbie Questions on DirecTv

    Just joined, so HI everybody! I just moved into a brand new house with a brand new Akai PDP-4294 (plasma) display (yes I know, not the best plasma display, but it was a gift from my dad). I looked at the rates for Comcast cable and thought it was a little ridicolous. In addition I don't...
