I hesitate to answer since you seem to be an expert at this
I have the H20 HiDef receiver (standard with new installs I believe). It's OK... not lightening quick. I'd guess it takes about 2 seconds to change channels, for it to tune in, and then display a picture.
I don't want anything live except a few sporting events - and even those I start late. I couldn't tell you when any shows are on TV anymore, they just show up on my Sage server.
