    This is from 2006, but the issue is largely the same today. http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=6518617254
  2. DIRECTV Programming
    I'm fairly certain that if the law(s) allowed, DirecTV would be more than willing to sell everyone more than one set of locals. I'd bet DirecTV would be very happy to have the option to sell you all the (ConUS) locals your heart desired and could afford. The issue is what the government allows...

    Because in order to hide a large chunk of cash coming from TWC, they need to be partners in the new channel, otherwise they risk sharing about one-third of the TV rights with "low-revenue teams."

    SportsNet LA won't start until 2014. It still is pending Major League Baseball’s approval. Lot's of time for speculation on the price.
  5. DIRECTV General Discussion
    My Whole Home has been all DECA for a while, but my mother is still using Ethernet only for Whole Home with her 3 - HR20-700s and 1 - HR22. It works just fine. As for how to approach DirecTV to activate your WH, I'm not sure they even activate WH as unsupported any more, however it couldn't...
  6. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    I have 4 HR24-500s, two in one room and two in another. All are set to use IR. I've never had any problems with them. Side note: I also have 2 HR20-700s in the same room as two of the HR24-500s and an H24 in a separate room.

    I've heard that some people actually read manuals, but I thought that was just a myth.
  8. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Viacom makes most of their shows available on Hulu and/or Netflix. Why should DirecTV pay a premium price for watered-down content.

  10. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    You found it? What the... You're welcome. By the way, this Mr. Know-it-all found it by using Google images. It took less than 30 seconds. I went to Google images and typed in 'under eave mount Directv'. Look for it in the sixth row. After I found the installation instructions, I goggled the...

    And all this time I thought it was my middle school algebra teacher. :D

    I'll second that. I doubt he'll need the amp or LNB locker, even with a 100 ft run. If it was my money I'd try it without and add them if needed.

    You are going to have to feed one of the HR34s from the SWM2 port on the SWM-16. Each port can feed a maximum of 8 tuners.
  15. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    On the lower SWiM-8 he shows 2 - HR24s and a HR34. 9 tuners are not going to work on a SWiM-8. Replace that with a SWiM-16 and you're good to go.
  16. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Personally, I'm suspicious of the splitter. I'd start by switching ports on the 4-way splitter to see if that makes any difference. You may need to reboot. If it isn't too much trouble I might also try moving the HR-21 to another location and see if it works there.

    The problem with that it if he has a 3-lnb dish then he is mistaken about receiving HD channels 3 months ago. DirecTV moved all the HD channels a long time ago. If he has the AT-9, then it needs to be adjusted.
  18. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Maybe you missed the part where DirecTV moved these channels several years ago.
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    My wife summed it up best when her sister asked how could she ever watch it all. My wife just smiled, "I don't plan on watching it all, but when I watch TV, I want to watch something I enjoy, not just whatever is on."
  20. DIRECTV General Discussion
    We have 2 - HR20-700 DVRs, 4 - HR24-500 DVRs, and 2 HR10-250 DVRs. There are 3 of us: wife, daughter, and myself. Network shows are recorded on the 2 HR20-700 DVRs via OTA. ABC/NBC on one. Fox/CBS/CW on the other. One of the HR24-500 DVRs has mostly HBO/Sho/Comedy Central/TNT. Another has...
