DirecTV HR20-700 is a poor attempt at making junk
A month ago I received my HR20-700 from DirecTV. After months and months of waiting I would finally be able to record the HD programs that I like to watch every week. I’ve had an RCA DTC-210 HD receiver for some time and it’s worked flawlessly with both OTA and satellite delivered HD feeds, but when it comes to recording my DirecTivo has always carried the load. So imagine my excitement when I finally get the call that the HD DVR is available. Now I revert to one unit vs. two and have the best of both worlds, right? Wrong! Initially I reviewed this unit fresh out of the box and at a cursory glance it looked promising. Having used it for a month now, I’ve determined, the HR20-700 is almost worthy of the junk pile.
