I won the battle but lost the war! Thanks for all the troubleshooting help on getting my Direct TV to work with the old RCA receiver and raise our MotoSat dish.

So I have about 4 days in which to enjoy it! Technology marches on. I'm not sure if direct tv really will turn off the RCA receivers this week on Dec. 18th, but that's what they told me.
Thanks

If you are still interested is persuing a solution with your MotoSat, here is some contact info for RF Mogul. 801-895-3308; 801-895-3392; royal@rfmogul.com. The email is to Royal Lamb who is one of the MotoSat guys who founded the company and got the boot when new owners took over & proceeded to ruin the company. Royal is very service oriented and will help you if he can.
