There is a H23-600 (HD receiver non DVR).
From what I have heard the HR23 has built in B-Band Converters but I don't think it is out yet.stblake10 said:He must have meant hr22. Which HDDVR has the b-bands built into it?
I'll be curious to know what you end up with...stblake10 said:That must be the box I am getting tomorrow. He did say that the NEW boxes had the b-bands built into them. He did say it was an HR23-(not sure about the later part of the #). But I am certain of it.
At this point, there is not HR23-### .. The H23-600 is a standalone HD receiver that does not require a b-band converter. It is not a DVR. So if the tech brings this out to you, you won't have any way to record. My guess is that you will get an HR22-100, but please do let us know if you get something weird.stblake10 said:The tech/sup will be out at the house today. I will update this thread later. If I can get some pics off I'll add them in. The HR21-200 that I have, hesaid that he has seen alot of issues with them accepting the b-band converster signals. Is there any specs on the hr23-###?
There are plenty of options. They have the HR21-700 Hr21-100 Hr21-200 HR22-100 etc....etc.... Maybe he meant the HR22-100. which I have and does need the BBC's. Let us know what he brings. Many are interested in itstblake10 said:I will report back. It was weird when he stested the two lines feeding the box. One line (both w/b-band) had a high % and the other had 25-30% lower strength. When he removed the b-band from the line that was the weaker the box was fine. Now I assume the hr21-200 is the HDDVR. So what HDDVR box do I have an option of getting, if he said the box he is bringing dies not need the b-bands?
Not that expensive any longer, but policy for D* is not to "upgrade" current customers I believe. User Roberte here can answer that better. The H23 doesn't use BBC's. Rumor has it there may be another HDVR+ comng out in the future that would use that same tech. It just hasn't been seen yetstblake10 said:I know that I am not getting the SWM set up. He is trained on it, but the cost is expensive.
Probably notStarchy77 said:I am guessing he did not get an HR23???
