HR10-250 HD Compatable with new DTV Band?

[dactime]

With the new band that Direct is going to start broadcasting the HD channels on, is there any way to continue using my current HD Tivo, or do I have to use their equiptment?

If you had searched, you'd be able to answer that question on your own.

Sorry, I'm just frustrated with so many questions that could have been answered with a simple search.

But, to answer your question. The HR10 cannot receive the MPEG4 channels from the new sats. Therefore, you'll need the new receivers from DirecTV.

The HR10 will still work with SD channels and OTA.

You will need an H20 HD Receiver or HR20 HD DVR to receive the new MPEG4 HD channels premiering in mid-September.
