Has anyone tried retention to get a deal on the HR20 without getting the new dish? (do you think its even possible?)
Im getting a new LCD for my basement, and the easiest way to get wires to it will be HDMI (because its just a single connection)....since Im fishing wires thru existing walls and ceilings, the less I have to fish the better.
That leaves the HR20 as the only (current) DirecTV receiver I can use to make my life easier. I dont currently have the 5 LNB, nor do I want it (I get my locals over OTA with no problems).
Anyone think retention would give me a halfway decent deal on just the HR20? Has anyone successfully done this before?
Thanks!
