How do I access the HI Def on other channels?

Question

I had understood that if I precede the Directv numbers with a (1) that will get my HD channels, it hasn't worked yet.

Answer 1

Hi keycom2 ,

Someone has confused you.

Most of the HD channels are above channel 99 so what you heard is true because most start with 1. For example  channel 31 becomes 131 but you have to subscribe to HD before you will be able to get  channel 131.

You must subscribe and to HD package and have the HD equipment.  Most of the HD channels are the same number as their non-HD counterpart.  Not all channels are offered in HD.

Answer 3

Do you subscribe to the HD package through DirecTV?  If not, you won't get the HD channels.

Answer 4

If you "precede the Directv numbers with a (1)" ??!!! What the h**l does that mean?!!
