I have had DirecTV for over 10 years now (was an early adopter) and currently have two dual LNB dishes and 3 receivers (the first RCA unit, a RCA DRD515RB with RF remote and optical sound ot and a RCA DTC-100 HDTV reciever) I even moved the first dish to my current house 6 years ago. All equipment has been near flawless (twice I had to reset the first unit yet it only took 5 minutes). I have had very good luck and like the performance of the equipment.
