I have A H10 Directv receiver I'm trying to use just to receive the free OTA channels in my area. I bought the unit used without a card. I tried to use it and when in setup I go to the screen where I was asked to choose antenna setup and It wouldn't let me select it. I bought a used card thinking that might help but same problem. I rest everything and it searches for Sat but i don't have one, just OTA antenna. then it does some test where of course the sats fail but also the tuner fails. i chose the" fix later" option. now it says its getting the program guide from the sat "that isn't there". and that's where it vhas been for about an hour. Can any one help me get this going

for this model you will need to set up a dish aim to the sky and download the program guide from DirectTV satelllite first then you are able to watch OTA channels with OTA atenna attached.

Otherwise you will have to change to different ATSC receiver to receive free OTA HD directly.
