RCA DRD480RE DIRECTV PLUS Second-Room Receiver
So Happy with this Purchase!!
I got tired of the poor signal and service from my cable company as the cost kept rising.  I finally looked into the possibilities of a satellite dish even though the local cable is running a hard ad campaign against satellites!  I purchased this second receiver along with the RCA DirectTV Plus 4440 eliptical dish.  Although I live alone, I wanted to be able to be recording one show on one TV while watching something else in another room.  Although this set is more expensive than many single LNB systems, I will not have to buy a new system to handle HDTV in a few years.  Both receivers and the dish were installed free of charge by a local company who contacted me before the items even arrived.<br />I can't be happier with my purchases.  The receiver units are very small, the remote is ergonomically friendly to my hand and easy to operate.  I was easily able to program the remote for my TV also.  The one drawback is that is is limited in the non-RCA Proscan devices that it will operate.  True universality and a lighted keypad would make it near perfect in my opinion.  The system is Dolby digital compatible so I can watch on-the-air movies the way they are meant to be heard through my home theatre system.  A real plus.<br />I have found that I get more channels for less money than I paid for cable and the signal is a better quality.  All-in-all I am very pleased with my choice after a several week investigation into systems!
