    Captain....thanx. Very good info.
  2. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Found an older Directv remote. I like the way it feels. Can anyone shed light on which receivers / dvr's it might work with? And if anyone knows where to get programming instructions?

    wow....good to know.....marked my calendar to remove....and never did they tell me I was locked in for any term for the protection plan, other than the two year service commitment.....
  4. DIRECTV HD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    Most of your problems seem to have been with a lousy install and couldn't one make a case that they would be responsible to fix anyways? Failing cables and multi switches usually takes years, if not decades. So may I sum up, and correct me if I'm wrong....paying for the PP gets you a bit faster...

    How about enlightening us on how it actually saved you money....I only have it because of fear the receivers will quit....

    Thanks....but I'm hoping for a reply without the word "probably" in it..... No amount owed, so they activated it....thanks again for that obvious answer...
  9. DIRECTV General Discussion
    I've been offered an "owned" (confirmed with Directv) receiver.....but because they are upset with them, they still owe money. Can Directv not allow me to add it to my account because they owe?
  10. DIRECTV Programming
    Wish Directv would expand the show description on the on-screen guide, so when I record the series I'm not always getting duplicates....
  11. DIRECTV SD DVR/Receiver Discussion
    ....was that the R15 needed to download additional software. First clue was that upon setup it didn't allow me to choose correct type of satellite dish(only older types).....solution was to set it up with simple dual lnb setup,reformat hard drive, resets, download update, setup with proper dish.....

  13. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    Anyone know a slick way to test a triple lnb with built in switch without actually using it? I know how to use a continuity tester and a volt meter. And can the built in switch fail?

  18. DIRECTV Installation/MDU Discussion
    I'm making trying to use a dish that doesn't have the proper arm, can anyone give me some measurements as to where the triple lnb should be in relation to the dish? Maybe the measurement from the plastic middle lnb to the center of dish? to the bottom of dish? and to the top of the dish? With...
  19. DIRECTV General Discussion
    What's the difference between R15 and R16? And is the R10 so different also other than a small hard drive?
  20. DIRECTV General Discussion
    Sorry to piggyback on this, but I'd also like to know everyone thoughts about the channel icons being broadcast on the channels. Some are so distracting. I wish the gov't would step in and make that illegal. If they are worried about unauthorized reuse, there should be a better way.
