I recently upgraded to DirecTv HD service. A new 5 LNB dish was installed with a multiswitch. I now have an HR20 in my living room and my old Phillips DirecTiVo in my bedroom. To feed the DirecTiVo, the installer used the existing DirecTv line for one tuner and then we used an old Comcast...

I would like to know the settings required for my meter to aim a dish to AMC3. I have a super buddy. Thanx

I notice that Directv recently updated their website to say now offering 39 national HD channels. It used to say 38. But I can't tell what they added. Anyone know?

Hello, Earlier I posted about the low signal strengths I have on the 103b satellite, particularly on the even transponders. Today, I had a tech out here and he told me "those signals are normal for the 103" (HAH! I think to myself). Anyway, he proceeded to adjust the dish (which is a story in...

(Long story.. sorry) I called DTV last night after having some channels out for weeks.. we were actually able to get them working over the phone.. but.. I found out all the HD equipment they told me (back when purchased) would work with the new HD channels is useless. MPG2 vs the needed MPG4. ...

I just purchased a JVC 42" LCD, and my Dish 625 receiver SD picture quality is very poor. It was great on the Philips 30" CRT HDTV that just burned up. But, they're fazing them out, so I gotta change with the times, I guess. OTA Hi-Def picture is perfect on the JVC using an old Zenith...

DirecTv is upgrading me to HD today. Since the new dish is bigger, they cannot remount it to my chimney. The installer tells me that they will be using a nonpenetrating roof mount that is "secured" by using weights. Does anyone have any experience with these types of mounts? Are they really...

I am on the verge of purchasing an HDTV. I know I will have to upgrade to DirecTv's HD package but I am currently using DirecTiVo and I don't really want to switch to DirecTv's (non TiVo) HD DVR. Should I be considering a stand alone DirecTv HD box and a Series 3 HD TiVo or is the HD DVR any...

Hi, the new website is www.satelliteinformation.net

Originally reported by Cox and Comcast users, and I verified it on DirecTV, so perhaps also on Dish? Looks to be all the Showtime channels, including TMC and Flix. And presumably also Sundance, but I always get it, so I can't verify its free preview status. Patty

I just picked up a H20 at the swap meet for $30. I did not come with a card. I have a P4 card that has never been activated. I could just give it a try when I call to activate it. Just checking! thanks MC
