Two Directv Hr34/44
Has anyone had any luck getting a second genie activated with D? I want one at home and one in the RV without a second account. Thanks.

My install was set up with one Genie, one client, one DVR and two HD receivers. They lied about the price not going up so I had them to disconnect the client and the DVR. So I have aGenie a two HD receivers. Why do you need two Genies? They work with regular receivers and you can take one or two in the trailer. Oh they didn't even want the client or the DVR back, there sitting on a shelf in the garage.
I'm having trouble following you. I'm sure it's because we use different terminology.
How are you defining receivers? DVR? Genie?
A standard DirecTV DVR will record 2 channels. A Genie will record 5. The clients are not receivers but will allow you to watch the programming on a Genie. You could have 1 Genie and 1 client and watch 2 different channels on 2 different TV's at the same time. You could also install a Genie (5 tuners) plus a standard DVR (2 tuners) and watch or record 7 channels simultaneously. I use a Genie and an H25 for a 6 channel option but I could add other options should I choose. It's all about choices. If you use a Genie (and I recommend everyone use a Genie) you will never be able to go back.
