DTV hardware pictures

Note: after yet another "dustup" with an uppity moderator on the DirecTV forum, I'm no longer there. It's 90% bad information, and be careful of the data given there. The only data worse than the "experts" is the actual DTV customer service people who either give an answer that solves nothing, is not relevant, or ask you to take the issue to a DM to hide the fact that your problem cannot be solved.

Note how they are ranked in customer service: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/directv.com
