attention to Article 810 and in particular Article 810-15 of the NEC (National
Electrical Code), which covers proper installation and grounding of

Telephone Line Interruption
A continuous, land-based phone line connection is required for DIRECTV
®
Pay Per View functionality and sports subscriptions. Periodically,
information on your TiVo Service is sent, free of charge, via your telephone
line. If you use your telephone during the time the information is being
forwarded, you will hear static noise for approximately 30 seconds. It is not
necessary to install a separate phone line. Simply plug the receiver into any
existing phone jack; it can detect when your phone line is in use and make
calls when the phone is available. If the phone jack is used for another
phone, use the provided splitter.
The Satellite Receiver is intended for use only within the United States.
