Former dish customer just switched . Tech installed 2- hr24,1-hd receiver , I was very pleased to get the newest equipment . Tech told me that if you ordered the whole house Dvr service that 10 out of 10 times you will get hr24's, at least in my area .. He also said that they didn't have any problem getting hr24's in my area. I love the hr24, very fast and responsive , also the whole home thing is awesome !!
