Do I need Direct TV HD service to watch things in HD on direct tv?
ok so i have direct tv and a hdtv i went to best buy today and the guy said to watch tv in hd all i need is a direct v hd receiver and i will get all my normal channels in hd. the hd service thats $10/month is only for premiun channels i guess. the only reason i ask is cause direct tv wanted alot of money to upgrade to it they said i had to buy 4 new hd recievers and i only have 2 hd tvs. i’d appreciate any advice
Yes. I had to do the same thing with dish network. First thing they do is upgrade your box and satellite. Then The satellite has to be turned in the direction in order for you to receive the HD programming. Thats the way the package deal works. Direct tv is kinda high priced. i used to have it then switched because times are hard now. My mom and I are preferred customers and have been with dishnetwork for a long time. We did get the discounted upgrade and saved some money on our bill. I mean we were given 2 boxes, but we have three tvs. 2 operate independently off of one box. Then I have mine in my room.
