Pegasus customer. Their CS group points me to Best Buy for my purchases.


If I get a receiver for the Super Bowl (OTA), do I need to call Pegasus to activate it...or does OTA work regardless?


I specifically asked if I had to go to BB, asked if I could get a receiver from ultimate Electronics or CC or online.


"Well, BB is on my approved list"...is all the guys would say.


I just don't understand this w/ Pegasus. How the F do they know where a receiver was purchased from...and why would they care?

The boxes available for DirecTV HD will work just fine for just over the air reception. Buy the box where you want. They can't tell you where to buy something.


BB, CC and Ultimate all carry basically the same HD D* boxes.

I've got two Hughes E86 HD Receivers that I'm selling soon. Any interest?

Tonedeaf, thanks for the offer...can you have one to my houes by tomorrow



Oh, and hmil, the guys at Ultimate asked if I was a Pegasus customer and they said they couldn't sell boxes to me. It's so freakin' odd.

Unfortunately, not in time for the Super Bowl. Next Thursday, I'm replacing the DTV Hughes E86's with Comcast's new 6208 HD Receiver/Recorder. So I was planning to sell the E86's on Ebay.
