Samsung 160 vs 165 reciever (Dolby Digital)

[Pmjohnson]

I noticed in the brochure that the 165 can broadcast in Dobly Digital. Does that mean the 160 does not. I thought that all HD recievers could broadcast in Dolby Digital. Can someone help me out.

The 160 does Dolby Digital as well. They are essentially the same box - the 160 adds a DirecTV tuner. The 165 is OTA only and can't be used with DirecTV.

Thanks for the info. I didn't realize that 165 was OTA only. Sure don't need that because I live in an rural area and OTA HD is still a long way off.
