receiver. I guess I didn’t know that could happen. Rokus all work though. So just one receiver needs to be replaced. I have a HDMI switch I’ll use to compensate for losing a couple of the inputs. Oh well. Could be worse.

Oh, and Merry Christmas!

Oh, and go cougars!

Dang - did you have a surge suppressing power strip? Those usually will insure and replace stuff if it fries.

I have all electronics worth more than $300 plugged into a UPS. I constantly watch for deals on them on Slickdeals.
