      I think it depends on the dish not the box, you have an HD receiver from 7 years ago?

        I learned that lesson last year when I got my first HD TV late into the season....they charged me half price for the Superfan but it's not cheap. But oh man it looks incredible when on. I just wish they would air more Bills games on the HD week to week. It's not always for sure.

        You'll probably need the following to get max benefit:
        • DIRECTV HD receiver— model HR20 or H20
        • 5-LNB satellite dish
        • B-Band Converter module

          I have the same dish and receiver from my initial signup.

          I think I better give them a call.

            I don't think you need that equipment, but its probably the best way to go (albeit expensive). It will have you ready for when they start transitioning over from mpeg-2 to mpeg-4.

            While I haven't yet been able to justify the extra money for SuperFan, for what has amounted to 4-5 Bills games in HD per season, I did end up buying the equipment - mainly so I can get the major networks 'over the air' in HD.

            I bought a triple lnb, a switch, and a Samsung Directv HD receiver on ebay, for about a total of $50. I don't have any DTV programming besides Sunday Ticket though (which they don't allow new customers to even do anymore), so I didn't want to invest too much $$$ into it.
