Just ordered another DVR SD to replace a D11 on the phone. Which model do you think I'll get?

Thank you

Most likely an R16, but some markets whose SD locals come off the 103 are getting an R22. What's your ZIP?
Chances are, you may get an R22-100.... Good luck.

Yesterday I ordered a new SD DVR and they said that I would be getting a R22 SD DVR. DIRECTV just rolled out the DIRECTV On Demand back on July1, so you are likely get a R22. :)

You're scaring me! Can't be worse than the R-15, which I've found to be okay for my needs.

I think most will agree the R22 is preferable to the R15 for a variety of reasons. If you found the R15 to be okay for your needs, you should be quite happy with an R22.

Checked my order and it does say R22. It also says 5-LNB multi-satellite dish. Do I have to get a new dish? I already have two up there already. Ugh!

Thanks.

Worst case scenario, they will replace the South facing dish with the behemoth 5-LNB dish so they don't have to come out again when you go HD (and they can move the SD LIL to the 99W or 103W slot).

Shhh.... Don't let ThomasM see that post.

I agree though that the R22 is preferred to the R15 (at least I look at it that way).
