    I can't see why they would complain about that. Thanks

    New townhome

    There is so much legalese. The class act of a lady specifically said the owner of the townhome rental community wants the place to look nice and will not allow satellite dishes in any way shape or form. Now, how would I go about fighting this?

    New townhome

    Not sure if this should be in the tech forum or not but here goes...feel free to move it if needed. Just need some insight on an idea I have for a townhome community where satellite dishes are not allowed. I currently have DirecTV and I would be forced to cancel my account when I move...

    Not getting Odd TPs

    That was the case. One of the coax's cooper ends rusted out! That caused it! Thanks!

    Not getting Odd TPs

    Been having issues with DirecTV @ mom & dad's place. Perfect 100% signal on Even transponders, but I have 50% on the Odd ones. Any idea what this is? I've tweaked and tweaked non-stop with no luck. Is this an LNB issue or a switch issue? Thanks in advance.

    TIVO HR10-250 as OTA DVR

    What if it was once activated, then turned off? I just got one from Ebay for OTA DVR purposes.

    HD sign-up question

    Question: Lets say I sign up for Direct and get the HD package. Are they offering a receiver that is ATSC compatible? In other words, I wanna be able to receive my locals via the airwaves and not through any re-uplinks. Just curious about what they are offering these days. I'm not...

    OK, so luckily I got outbid and I didn't win the auction. I'll keep my eyes open.

    Hr10-250

    Getting ready to order this unit on Ebay. It is an owned box. So...no worries right? I hope so. My basic desire is to first tune the OTA digitals. Now, question: Do I need to subscribe to Tivo service in conjunction with DirecTV to allow the EPG and/or PVR to work with OTA? I...

    Directv Reciever in Argentina

    They are picky on access card usage. I wanted to activate an old receiver (freebie from neighbor) Long story short. I had to order a fresh access card. They wouldn't let me use the old one. I'd ask everyone in the D* forum.

    Multiswitches: Power or no power

    I thought that was the case. I can't understand why it's there in the 1st place. Just wanted to be sure before I go hooking this thing up.

    Multiswitches: Power or no power

    I needed room for a 5th receiver so I had to buy a 3x8 multiswitch for mom and dad's place instead of the 3x4. Now, every 3x8 I've come across has a power port. Do these things absolutely need power? Let me know if these things can work without power (18VDC). I only ask because the...

    Symphonic TV remote code

    I have the RC23 DirecTV remote with a D11 DirecTV receiver set up for my sister. Tried both codes for the Symphonic brand TV and both don't work. Any idea on how to find out if there is a possible working code for that brand? Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

    D-11 / Dish 500

    Ok, here's the issue. Mom and dad are renting a new place temporarily til the home gets moved to a new lot. They [mom and dad] have Direct TV. There is already a Dish 500 dish up on the roof of the new place. Not sure if it's aimed for 101 + 110 or: 110 + 119. (Dual LNB setup)...

    1 sub....2 houses

    I have a situation where mom and dad want to share the subscription with grandma. In other words, same subscription, but just adding another receiver, but with the receiver at another location. What are the legalities on that? Has anyone tried it?

    old Hughes SD-HBH

    The neighbors gave me a box of what they thought was "junk" but had 2 DTV receivers in the box. One of which is a Hughes SD-HBH with acess card and an old RCA RDR222RD model receiver. Ebay material? Or worth keeping for future subs? Open to opinions.

    Yay! my first DTV post

    I'm afraid that might be it. Unfortunately, cables are under the house at the folk's place. So, just for kicks, I may try a different multiswitch, see if that fixes the problem, if not, underground I go. By the way, I did swap receivers and made sure it was not a receiver problem. My...

    Yay! my first DTV post

    Got issues with one receiver at mom and dad's place. Here is the setup. 18" DTV dish with dual feed LNB into 3*4 multiswitch with 4 receivers. 3 out of 4 receivers work fine, one of em can not tune odd transponder channels. I tried both test channels, and the odd channel (13V) does...
