Go to your neiborhood Circuit City and ask them for the Philips DSR6000. They're clearing them out now for $99.95. It's a particularly great deal if you already have a DirecTv with Tivo unit because you only have to pay the DirecTv $5.99 extra receiver charge to mirror your Tivo subscription.

Hey, M. and everybody else:

I read through all five pages of the AVS forum referred to by alfabetsoop in my diplexer question thread, then last night, I went to CC and bought two DSR6000's at $99 each(!), got the dish for a penny(!!), and the five years ext. warr. on the whole purchase for an additional $45(!!!). Came home, put up the dish in 15 min, got over 90 signal on all transponders, and now I'm in satellite heaven! Thank you!

And, by the way, the price seems to be the regular price, not a clearance or sale.

Now, all I have to do is get a multi-switch, a clip-on-the-dish antenna, some more coax, and figure out how to use the dual-tuner functions. Oh, yeah, I also have to call AT&T Broadband and tell them to turn me off. Thanks again!

Larry
