The HR24 is a great receiver. It can record 2 channels at once for which you'll need a dual LNB and 2 coax from the dish. With a Slimline 3 dish then you've got HD but might need a TV upgrade! And then you can change the dish out for a SWM dish.

Both TV's are HD already just haven't seen the need to upgrade the DVR's until the old ones go out. The front DVR is still the R-22 model. Once it goes, we'll talk about going HD. Our roof mounted dome (TracVision R5SL, which went out this past season) was in motion and we may replace it with another in motion at some point. That means if we want to stay with Directv for the sports programming, we'll need to stay with SD.
