DirecTV HUGHES/ HTL-HD guide

6-4. Subscription to DIRECTV® programming and ANT/CABLE-Only operation

The DIRECTV® HD Receiver is designed to receive signals from DIRECTV, ANT and/or CABLE sources. If you are a DIRECTV customer, you can enjoy programming provided by DIRECTV.

You can also receive the analog and digital over-the-air broadcasts, with the benefit of the Advanced Program Guide™ which is an integrated electronic program guide. The Advanced Program Guide provides program listings and information on analog and digital channels from over-the-air local stations as well as DIRECTV channels. You can easily navigate and tune to hundreds of channels from various signal sources with the Advanced Program Guide.

If you don’t subscribe to DIRECTV® programming, however, the function of the DIRECTV HD Receiver will be limited to receiving signals only from ANT and/or CABLE. You can still enjoy HD services provided by over-the-air digital broadcast along with the conventional analog broadcast. Without the DIRECTV service, however, no electronic program guide is available.
