Yes it does and thank you. I was thinking of buying 2nd hand from ebay but am leery of a distance sale esp when the difference in price between flea bay and new is $140 in some cases=peace/loss of mind.
How did you learn so much about qualifying this receiver?

If it doesn't, then chances are the Unit ID is corrupt and will not receive digital channels. The unit receiver number, Options 6, 5, Line B should also match the U/A number on the back of the receiver. > If you buy from another seller, ask questions first, because many have a As-Is, No Return Policy! > Some of these DSR 920 units being sold on ebay have dead batteries and as a result will not receive digital channels or store memory once unplugged for 15 minutes. > Another way of checking the receiver is to check the time display & satellite & channel number.
