Hi Jim,I havn't expierenced that yet. My Direct TV reciever is 110v and that is the root of all my start up trouble.I have to purchace a 12v reciever because, the 110v one is super sensitive to the milli second that occureswhen I switch from landline to inverter power. It then reverts to another acqusition....bummer.....annoying....agrevating....Funny how no other appliance is affected by the switch! Oh well...Good Luck with your trouble.Nick-
The tag on the back says Model: 2700. It's an old one that I picked up during an Elkhart salvage run 4 years ago. One problem I do have is that I can't order PPV. I get a message that says I need a phone line connected. The receiver I had in the house would do PPV without a phone line. I'm guessing that this is an older model and the firmware is requiring a phone line.
