    There are always ways around the 24 month commitment, if you cancel your service because you are no longer able to get DTV (moving to an apartment, Canada etc) there are cannot enforce the contract. Alternatively, it is quite an incentive to get a free install, free receivers, and a discounted...

    I do not think Sonic Tap even comes close to SiriusXM....it is fantastic to hear the same station at home, in the car and in the office....Sonictap is for retail stores that want background music. I get excited every time someone updates the "xm coming back to dtv" forum but to no avail

    I called in after seeing the Sunday ticket and EI free for new customers and was given both packages for free as well as a 20 discount for 12 months....I have been with DTV since 97 with the premier package. I typically do not look for discounts but I do like a free sports package now and then

    correction...I ended up buying a C31 instead of the switch, I am assuming that this will take care of the problem...I am going to replace the hr21...
  5. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I would have to agree, there is no indication from either PVR (in the set up or signal strength) that two tuners are allocated to that receiver and even if I could determine which receiver is still in dual mode (which I suppose I could if I booted them up without any other receivers turned...

    with one receiver powered up I can see all 9 SWM channels in the range of 88-95...I have replaced the 1x8 spiltter, but I still cannot get all receivers to see a signal...I can only see 7 tuners...right now I have the hr34 utilizing 5 tuners, r16 is using one (according to the signal strength...

    if the HR34 is the first booted up receiver all 5 tuners work, and whatever receiver is last to reboot will not see any signal....I am at a loss as to why I can only see 7 tuners...I have rebooted all equipment including the SWM, I have ruled out a faulty port on the swm switch... Thanks for the...

    sorry it is a 8 way msplit8r1 SWM splitter, everything within the setup worked fine until the HR34 was hooked up, the system has Whole home activated and it has always worked flawlessly

    Hello all Recently replaced a HR 24 with a 34...with the remaining setup SWM dish, 1x8 multiswitch, h24, hr21, and a r16. The hr34, could only see signal on tuners 3,4, and 5, so I quickly realized that I had overloaded the multiswitch, I redid the satellite set up on the HR21 and the r16 so...
