I have never used a C31 client. But if it is capable of using the RF on an old style (4 color button) remote, you should be able to reset the C31 to IR by completely resetting it. That would involve pressing and holding the reset (red) button for about 20 seconds. If the there is no reset...

I just corrected that post for Jimmy.

The co-location is a "service" that is added to your HR44 or HR54 that disables watching any programming on the HR54, and saves the $7/month fee for the HR54. The HR54 can still display settings menus and the like. Connecting both the HR54 and the Gemini to an ethernet switch is not...

If you are talking about selling DIRECTV equipment such as receivers, DVRs, Genie servers, Genie clients, the answer is that you can't. You don't own your equipment, you only leased it from DIRECTV. You have to return it to them, or if they don't want it back, put it in your local electronics...

Actual Weekly Analysis for 10/30/2024:

That is well documented in the DIRECTV Technical resources forum. Short answer: spare bandwidth.

They are all that old, whether they were ever used or not.

Don't argue with success.

The only thing I have watched on Appletv+ is the first two seasons of Foundation. But I have been an Isaac Asimov fan for over 50 years, and I believe I have read every book he ever wrote. I'm still waiting for the third season.

I prefer the channel numbers.

I don't know about the DISH article, but the DIRECTV stallite article at Wikipedia is badly out of date.

No it isn't. The terme of the deal as I understand it, which the bondholders have to approve, is they would have to exchange their current bonds for new ones with less principal value, maturing later, with a larger interest rate (higher annual return to bondholders). Their alternative if...

I thought that they were no longer using the 129 W location and the Western arc locations were now 110W and 119W. Do I have that wrong?

Can anyone give me information on what satellites DISH uses at each orbital location? With this anticipated merger, I am beginning to be interested in analyzing the current DISH satellite fleet. Looking at the FCC database, I don't see a satellite owned by DISH at 119. I have done a lot of...

Jimbo, when AT&T no longer has any stake in DirecTV, I think you will have a valid concern for your Retiree Discount. But as a long time customer, you probably can get a loyalty discount each year. I look forward to my DirecTV account being divorced from AT&T.

A huge number of us on this forum are retired from somewhere..

After your contract ages out, there are various discounts available. I suspect the Retiree Discount is one form of that. I have to call up every year and negotiate for a "Loyalty Discount". it ranges from $30 to $50 a month. I have to negotiate for it each year. Threatening to switch to...

That was a typo that I corrected immediatrly.

From a technical side, if and when the merger is completed, Dish will gain three transponders at 110W and 11 transponders at 119. The three licensed to DIRECTV at 110 are currently unused, and most DIRECTV customers don't have equipment to receive them. Most also can't receive the 11 tpns...

If what you say is true, then the 30 second hold on the red button should set it back to factory defaults and allow you to initialize it as if it were brand new. That works for the satellite Gemini.

The Gemini boxes have to be authorized to your account by serial number. The last that I knew,, DTV was treating the Gemini (both satellite and streaming) the same the Gemini mini clients: When removed from an account, they don't want them back and they can't be reactivated.

Gary will make similar changes to the TPN map.

The weekly Analysis has been updated to show the APG records that formerly showed no TID to indicate that these are Internet delivered streaming channels.
