I got a UTV receiver for Christmas and had nothing but trouble with it when the spot beam technology was launched. I had this same problem with 2 receivers and UTV/Direct TV finally told me it was a satellite problem and that they didn't know when I would get my reception back.

I took the UTV receiver (#2) back and got a Phillips DirectTV-TIVO unit and I love it! It set up easy and has been running fine from the beginning. Picture is great, 2-tuners and Dolby 5.1 I would recommend the TIVO unit over UTV given the problems that I had with UTV.
