Had defective HR54-200, keep getting REfurbished HR54-700's?
Had a HR54-200 (2016 dated) that went Defective. Specifically asked for and was told by the agent I would get a Brand NEW HR54. When it came it was a HR54-700 (2018 dated) that had a white REfurbished sticker on back! Called again and was assured the next one would be brand NEW and not refurbished.

Contractors did a good job of replacing the dish in the original location but, sometimes even on a bright, clear sunny day some channels don't come in clearly, like the receiver is searching for enough signal.
