Hello everybody.
I have been using 2 RC 24's (RF) remotes, H-10's actually 2 remotes, 1 H-10
Suddenly they both decide to not work.
I reset, and did all the required programming and set it to RF and it will not work.
Then I changed the batteries in both and went thru the resetting again and programming and they will work in IR mode only.
I checked the connection of the RF antenna and it is connected correctly.
When I try to set it for the RF mode, go thru all the set up and when it says to click the select button, it will not do anything...
Also the slide switch IS in the Directv mode
Any ideas guys ???
Why would both remotes quit working ? and what to do next ??

I think I will go to a freinds and see if my remotes work there, or bring his back and see if that works.damaged said:
The remote I am going to bring back is already in the RF mode, so if either of my remotes work it should work his receiver right away.
My receiver won't accept me going to the RF mode, when I try it says to hit DONE as the next step when switching to RF and when I try it doesn't accept the command.
We shall find something out today

Well, after trying my Dad's remote and finding it to be no different, when I had some time I decided to call D* and ask them about it.....What an experience.
I made my 1st call and waited 15 minutes till someone came on the line (I called the Advanced Tech Support Dept.) I thought I might get thru quicker than the other lines. I thought wrong.
Anyway, some one finally answered and I explained to him what my trouble was and then I suddenly heard the " If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again", So after waiting patiently for them , they hung up on me.
So, I called again and spoke with a helpful gentleman and eventually said I need to send you to tier 2, I thought I ws already, but he send me to Teir 2 and I explained myself again .....
The ATS guy diagnosed the trouible to being not the remotes, as we thought, and to my suprise, he said it was not the receiver either. That the RF receiving unit has nothing to do with the receiver.
He said to replace the antenna and it should be good to go, well it's too late to get to the store tonight, but I got to thinking, I have other receivers that have the RF ability, so I swipped the antenna from one in my closet and
WALA !!!! were back in business !!!

Just finished S2. Watching Gary Oldman as deshvilved, dejected MI-6 agent, Jackson Lamb, is one of the best things streaming right now. Already 2 more seasons in the works. HIGHLY recommended. And yes, Mick Jagger sings the theme.

On Tuesday, I recorded the first episodes of the new season's NCIS shows on CBS (Dish provided, not OTA). The new New York series and Origins will both do Auto Skip, but the original, now season 24 does not. What's stranger, when I do a search for NCIS, Origins and New York show the current recording and the next episode it will record, but the original show only shows the current recording and some other channel showing the very first episode of season one. It makes no sense. When I set up the timers, I was able to use search for Origins and New York, but for the original, I had to scroll ahead in the guide until last Tuesday when the show was airing. Then set the timer from there. You can see its timer type is DVR where the other two are Seek. What am I missing?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Much better than the critics would want you to believe. Only problem, the last guy was pretty obvious a couple of episodes in.
