We are getting ready to install Direct TV at home and on the Boat. We plan to have the main service at home. The boat is being fitted with the HD-7.
Goals:
1) Run as much on the boat as is physically possible under DC power only - It will be HD
2) All remotes will probably be RF
3) We would like to use the "Whole Home" DVR feature at home, and then another set on the boat.
Questions:
1) What do I need to order from Direct TV as far as DVR's, Remotes, receivers go... I want to order as little as possible and flat out buy as much as possible (I think).
2) Can I buy DC powered boxes for the boat?
3) What do I tell Direct TV I am doing? Home and Boat?
4) What do I need to tell my HD-7 installer regarding the "Whole Home" feature?
5) Does anyone know what kind of receiver comes with the HD-7? I understand it comes with one DVR.
