    This receiver is a good product, easy to set up and good picture. It is not Mpeg4 which is not good for me. In my area you have to have Mpeg4 equipment in order to get the network channels, so on this receiver I do not get my locals. The other problem I don't like is even though you buy the receiver Directv still owns it, it is that way with all Directv receivers you pay money and buy them and Directv still owns them. If you ever cancell service you have to send the receivers back to Directv.

                        this is a good price even though it is leased it is cheaper to order through ABT than DTV and faster shipping. Be carefull, it does not come with a remote which the site stated but they were good to work out that problem with me.

                          Product was easy to set up and was using within 30 minutes of receipt. This was a replacement for an older receiver which gave me a better picture quality and better menu optins.

                          Service was excellent and fast delivery. Arrived before scheduled date. Really enjoy doing business with ABT.
