[mythtv-users] DirecTV -- Satellite Serial Port -- How can I build the cable?

[Jeremy Oddo]

Ah, I get it.  'Course, most (all) of the new-ish RCA DirecTV receivers
probably function about the same.  He can do what I did...take 2 minutes
and make the serial->RJ11 cable, plug it in, and send it some commands. 
Fast and easy to test.
