As long as it has been previuosly been authorized you should not have any trouble.

No, once it has been disconnected, it will give you an error message (751, I think) when you try to use the OTA tuner. The H20 is the first D* HD receiver to do this.

Thanks for the correction, I presumed that all the receivers OTA worked once turned off, because all of mine have....
But I don't have a H-20....
So I presume this will be the case from here on out, I can see the reasoning, as from this point forward, everything will be leased and subject to being returned.

I think you right because that it will not let you use it OTA with a subscription...oh well.....

I know the older receivers were ok for this, but this is a new generation of receivers
