Re: I will finally get HD I'm getting a DirecTiVo-HD (the old kind) tomorrow. Why? To record OTA HD programming. DirecTV has forced many apartment dwellers to give up what little HD we had (or buy new receivers) by switching to a new cabling technology: SWM, also known as MFH2 for apartments/other MDUs. The new kit is not compatible with any of the legacy receivers, and I almost wonder if that was by design. Therefore, this DirecTiVo-HD will probably never see HD over the satellite, but that's fine. It will tide me over until the shiny new kit arrives next year.
For those of you who know: I sincerely hope this doesn't turn out like the HDPC-20.
