Perfect! Thanks for the help Bob.

Given that the HR34 can record 5 shows and my current hr23 can record only 2 shows, would I need to run any additional coax cables from either the swim or the actual dish to accomodate the hr34?

I am planning on changing the downstairs hr23 with the hr 34. Thank you for explaining this! I don't know why dtv couldn't help me out on the phone either! So I will need one CCK, one deca, and one hr34 and I should be all set correct?

I currently have a SWim setup to the dvrs. I want to replace the living room (downstairs) hr23 with an HR24

Guys- I've been trying to get an answer from Dtv customer support regarding install questions but for some reason they haven't been able to help me out. Here is my situation. I currently rent and I have a 5lnb dish and two hd-dvr's (hr-23's). One in the living room and one in the bedroom...

I'm finding more and more people experiencing the same thing on multiple shows but I guess it's not limited to D* "Happening right now during Glee. I am not amused..." red76nj "I am going to call Comcast tomorrow and ask them about it. My DD is hearing it on Glee also." "Okay, I thought...

I'm pretty sure it was not a cellphone. I keep hearing a low toned sound in the background every 5-6 seconds and it's consistently there over a 30-40 minute duration. It sounds like someone dialing numbers on an old school phone pad. Like when you would sometimes hear a cross line on your...

So, I was watching the Giants game last night and I noticed a strange noise throughout the game. It almost sounded like a faint cell phone ringtone from the late 90's coming from my TV. It would happend every couple of seconds I noticed. I then remembered that during the Emmy's, I heard the...

It seems to be the only channel not working correctly for me today. Usually when hgtv goes out, food network does as well but it's fine. HGTV has had bad reception for the 5 hours for me. Anyone else experiencing this or is it just me?

sorry didn't see that thread before I posted.

Both of my hr 23's started having this exact same problem about a week ago. I haven't tried resetting but will today and will report back. I started another thread about this issue before I saw this one so I apologize for that.

Over the past week or so I have noticed my hr23 taking a long time to change between channels. It seems to be more pronounced when I first turn it on as well. If I go to the guide and select a channel to view it takes about 10 seconds during which the program info is shown on the banner but the...

Thanks for the info!

It used to be on channel 701 last year but this year all I see on 701 is "To Be Announced" with a directv logo on it. Anyone know what channel it's on now or if the setup has been changed? Thanks

ok nevermind...there is no option to toggle it. It's automatically on once you plug in an optical cable.

I checked through the audio menu but there is no option for setting audio through optical. Only options I have are sound effects and dolby digital

I can't seem to find where in the menu I can set my audio to go via optical out while using my video through hdmi. I did this in my previous setup but for some reason I cannot find where that damn option is hidden in the menu! Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks

Well the installer is coming tomorrow so we'll find out what he thinks. The joists are indeed wood as I just checked but I don't know if the spacing will work out. Thanks for all the input.

I used smaller, lighter blocks when I was in Miami and it was just fine but I'll look into the other ideas as well.

So we are in agreement that they do not have to be 3ghz quad shield for a swm setup correct? Because the I don't know if the ones I purchased are 3ghz.

So after much thought i've decided to go with the same type of setup I had in Miami Beach last year where there were many strong storms (no hurricanes last year) and it didn't budge an inch and never need to be realigned. It's basically a 3 foot heavy duty tripod from radioshack, mast, and 3...

Just checked and my balcony railing is rather thin. I don't think it would handle a rail mount very well.

I'm definitely taking responsibility for it as much as I can. I had a setup on a tripod this entire past year when I lived in South Beach, Miami. It was a heavy duty tripod and the legs were drilled into 3 cement blocks and it stood up to many heavy wind storms/tropical storms without even...

Hmm..never thought of that option..does it require drilling into the railing?

Does the 2 inch pipe have to be threaded?
