Additional information about the HR20 from DIRECTV®
To fully utilize the HR20, you'll need to upgrade your DIRECTV satellite dish to the newer AT9 dish antenna (5-LNB). The DIRECTV AT9 dish or the new AU9S "Slimline" dish are the only DIRECTV satellite dishes that are capable of receiving the MPEG4 HD format DIRECTV programming.

The AT9 and AU9-S dishes have four outputs; enough signal feeds for up to four satellite receivers or two DVR receivers. Should you need to expand the number of outputs beyond four, a WB68 multiswitch can used to expand the capabilities of the AT9 dish to eight available outputs total. If more than eight outputs are required, a SPAUN 4x12 WBS41202NF or SPAUN 4x16 WBS41602NF switch can be used to create 12 or 16 outputs respectively. Also, from Zinwell, the WB616 switch can also be used to generate 16 outputs from an AT9 or AU9-S dish.

Other notes:

  • Because of the wide-band frequency range of the Ka/Ku AT9 and AU9-S satellite dishes, using a diplexer to integrate OFF-AIR television signals to the RG-6 feeds from the dish will not work. You must run separate RG-6 lines from your TV antenna to a H20, HR20, or HR10-250 receiver when using the AT9 and AU9-S dishes.
  • The HR20 is a DIRECTV+ PLUS DVR receiver; it is not a Tivo DVR with Tivo recording software.
