D* Receiver Advice Needed

[Stanley Kritzik]

I could use some advice from the "mavens" on this forum.

I am getting a third HD-capable LCD flat screen, and I need a DirecTV receiver for satellite and OTA local digital stations.  I now have the following:

DirecTV with a triple LNB dish with their HD package.
An OTA antenna picking up 4-1, 6-1, 10-1, etc., local to Milwaukee.
A Terk 5X8 multi-switch, merging and selecting D* and OTA signals.
Lines from the Terk going to a D* Tivo HR10-250 and a Samsung SIR-TS360, with diplexers separating the D* material from the OTA signals.

What I need for the third screen is a receiver capable of handling D* satellite and OTA HD signals, very much like the Samsung unit I now have -- with a single line and a diplexer.  I would like either HDMI or DVI output from the receiver with appropriate stereo sound.  In short, a unit like the Samsung TS-360, with no recording or second tuner input  needed.  I have the sense that the Samsung unit is history, and that there are D* units around, but I'd like some suggestions from you guys and gals who have done this, already.  I'm not ready to go up to a 5 LNB dish, so one that controls 3 LNBs is OK, so long as it also receives the OTA signals, too.

Thanks in advance for the advice I know I'll be receiving.

If you like your Samsung 360, why not look for a used one?  I got mine (meant for OTA only) off Ebay for about $60 a year ago, and I think they're even cheaper now.

A RCA DTC-210 would work too.  It might be cheaper than the Samsung since you have to activate it with D* to get OTA.

I have a H10 sitting in my basement collecting dust. Maybe we can work a deal ??
I have the remote, and the power cord. Let me know.
