Thanks Masaki...

The problem is that not all of the network stations will let us record (not sure which ones as that is a Chuck question and we have asked for waivers several times) on the old HD Tivo though several of our local stations are now broadcasting in HD... I do agree that being able to record in HD is great!

DirecTV has told us that they are going to swap out our current HD receivers for the new ones... we own them now but I am sure that they will make use lease them and sign a 2 year contract...

We had so many problems with DirecTV and getting them to probably do the installation on our new house... We almost dropped them but Comcast is not in our area yet... finally they did it correctly... it really was a shame as we were one of the first users of DirecTV in the Atlanta area back in October 1994...
