Configuring the HD Receiver

Before the user can start enjoying high-definiton programming,
the DIRECTV HD receiver must be configured for an "Oval, 3
®
LNB" dish type and must be activated for HDTV service.
Changing the Receiver's Dish Type Setting
To receive channels from the three DIRECTV satellites (101, 119,
and 110), the receiver needs to be configured for an "Oval, 3
LNB" dish (antenna) type. Since each receiver model is different,
refer to the receiver's User's Manual for details on viewing and
changing the receiver's Dish Type setting.
Activating DIRECTV HDTV Service
The receiver will not be able to decode HD channels until it is
activated. KVH makes it easy to activate. Just call KVH's
Activation Department at:
1-888-584-4163
(Monday-Friday, 8:30 am - 5:00 pm ET)
High-definition channels are not included with the basic
DIRECTV package; the user needs to request that these special
channels be added to the programming package. Premium HD
channels, such as HBO HD, must be ordered separately.
