2 DirecTV HD receivers

[dbk]

Anybody need any? One is a never used Samsung SIR-TS360, and the other is a Samsung SIR-TS160 that I've used for a couple years. Both have the access cards and can be used to decode aerial signals (I used the 160 for a few months just for this purpose). Don't have the manual or box for the 160 because I've been using it. Have everything in the box for the other.

Neither unit has HDMI, which is bad for convenience, but not (IMO) a factor in video performance.

Can't get DirecTV at our new location so I have no use for them. I'd sell them for $50 bucks and the shipping if anyone wants them (units cost $699 and $399 respectively, though I think refurbs can be bought for under $200).

Is direct Tv cable or satelite?

Tom, it's Directv satellite service. If you don't have the susbscription they are worthless. I suppose you could just use it as an over-the-air ATSC tuner, but many HDTV's within the last 24 months have the tuner built in.

DBK, where on earth are you that you can't receive a Direct TV signal?
