    I know how to read my bill. I’ve been on Premier since ‘98, and not grandfathered into a lower price. When DVR’s came out, subbing to Premier included free DVR service. Once they started charging for that service, mine has remained free to this day due to the original perk- that’s the only...

    Copy. I’ll keep my grandfathered Premier and save my whopping $2 + tax every month. 😀

    On that $15 AR fee, are you still getting the 1st TV free?

    And if they put it back on the NewsMix channel like they had a year or two ago for a brief time, my wife will tell me to cancel DirecTV immediately. Uggh.

    I get it, but comparing it to a HR21 is not really helping your situation as those stunk too, as far as speed and navigation thru the menus. If you want to keep it, put a SSD in that thing and you’d be amazed at the speed of the remote control commands. I’ve had both of those models and tossed...

    In the 2000’s with the HD Locals inception, we couldn’t get FOX local affiliate out of Milwaukee DMA, even via OTA, so we were given FOX out of NY (Ch 5, I believe) for free for many years. I’d have to dig back in the threads when DirecTV yanked that from us.

    I’m not sure why you still have the POS HR34. Get that thing upgraded- it was the worst Genie of them all.

    Maybe for the hell of it, try a CLEARMYBOX2 command in the search. 🤷🏻‍♂️
  9. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Clearmybox already does that, and much more.
  10. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Re-read the last sentence of my post. No need to pad your post count. 🤦🏻‍♂️

    My next bill generates on the 19th, so we’ll see.

    Correct- one can click on ‘Select Here’ box in the upper right hand corner to see the whole list of their chain names of lodging. And as a side note- Channel 901 will allow you to fill out your MM bracket as well. A couple other channels in the 900’s are preparing for the Masters too, coming in...

    I’ve cloned several 500G and 1TB HDD’s to 2TB SSD’s when upgrading all of my HR2x’s using a standalone clone dock (very similar to my external docks I use on DirecTV DVR’s). I didn’t experience any issues with all of the cloning I did.

    Boy, just seeing the back of that HR34 just reminds me of the horrors and torture of having that first Genie 10 or so years ago. I can’t believe people still put up with that POS to this day! 🤢
  16. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Oh yes they do! You can find out for yourself by contacting them. A year ago they stated the same thing- DirecTV won’t activate HR24’s and offered me a H24 for $99 plus a $149 activation fee. I ended up getting the HR24 (PP upgrade) from SS and DirecTV credited me $215 and activated it on my...

    I’ve been with DirecTV for about the same. In the future when this happens, I’d suggest getting a Stream Machine 30” (long range) water gun. I draw from a bucket of hot water at grade and clean the slimline dish off quickly of snow and/or ice- only like once a year when it happens. My dish is...
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    None of my 14 did either. 🤣
  19. DIRECTV Programming
    We know that.
  20. DIRECTV Programming
    Well you’re kind of the one that put it out there in the first place, which triggered this. Perhaps DirecTV does not consider GSN to be Entertainment. Our household does though. We watched a LOT of Match Game reruns over the years!
