I'm in the process of trying to install a receiver in my new RV, but cabinet space is REALLY limited. Any ideas on the smallest DVR would be appreciated.

Thanks

Can you locate is elsewhere and run the TV out to where the TV is ?

That's not entirely true. The size varies slightly by manufacturer.

The R15-300 is only 14 x 2.5 x 9.

You're right. Always liked the smaller -300. But I think it's pretty much all R16s now.

I was reading the spec sheet (For the R16)

SnoBear,

Hear your problem. How big is your cabinet space?

Cheers,
Tom

The prime candidate is just 11 inches deep, but with the RG6 connectors sticking out the back, I'm not sure how deep a DVR I can fit in it. Are there 90 degree RG6 connectors available?

Thanks

I would be more concerned with the heat the DVR puts out.

I have seen manufactured cables (I think they were from Monster) with 90 degree connectors but I am not 100% sure they are RG-6. I had glanced at them a year or so back but that was about it.
