    Two DVR's

    Lynskyn, I appreciate the help. I bet this was listed as Remote Address in the back of the user manual & I didn't associate it with the Remote Control. My apologies for missing that. Thanks for setting me on the right path! thanks, dan

    Did anyone from NY get the game on 625? I would think not as no deal was announced yet.

    Two DVR's

    Hey guys, I have 2 of the Hughes DVR's. One is standard Def & one is High Def. The same remote control works on both. Here is my problem. I have them both next to each other. So, if I use the remote, it changes both devices at the same time. Is there a way to change the codes that...

    DirecTV Billing Adventure...

    I'm a big D* fan & have been using them for many years. Am just now going through my first real issue with them. I've had about 5 missed appointments for an HD install (missed for several reasons), but the real killer was that I found $600 worth of HW charged to my account. It seems each time...

    I'm in NYC & have been trying to get D* to install HD equipment for me (i currently have 3 receivers, but no HD) for a couple of weeks. The installer that showed up did have the H20 with him and was going to install that with a large round dish, not oval. However, he did not have the proper...

    next 12 markets?

    That's interesting....i thought that NY & LA were next in line & they are not up yet, so San Fran by the end of the month might mean that SF has jumped ahead of the other 2.

    D* uses every trick in the book...

    The very large marjority of people who are D* customers rarely upgrade their equipment. Most that do upgrade equipment do so during the upgrade specials at a very reduced cost. I guarantee you that what people pay to "rent" cable boxes every month ends up costing them more for equipment they...
