HR20 Boot Time - Speed It Up?

[GoHogsAR]

I will tailgate with my HR20 for the first time tomorrow. One thing that really bothers me is how long it takes to get a picture with this receiver. I just clocked it at 8 minutes and 37 seconds from plugging in the receiver until I had a picture. That's a particularly big deal after the game because everyone comes back to the tailgate and I don't want to make everyone stand around for almost ten minutes waiting on the receiver boot up.

Is there any way to get the picture in faster?

Simple answer is No. Think of the receiver as a computer. It has many things to do during booting.

I was afraid of that. Is the H20 significantly faster? Anyone here clocked it?

Turn it on sooner.

Great idea! Can you tell me who carries a remote start mechanism for my generator that will work from my stadium seat? My parking spot is 3,519 yards from my seat, as the crow files, so the remote starter will need to have good range. Thanks in advance for your help.

I just clocked my H20. From plugin to picture time it clocked in at 3 minutes, 7 seconds.

Its freakin 8 minutes. Hit the head, crack a beer and start the grill.

Yea, get a BIG UPS that'll keep it up while you're toting it to/from the game...
