Reviewing and controlling Caller ID
The Caller ID item in the SETUP menu allows you to view a list of calls that you
have received on the telephone line connected to your DIRECTV Receiver. It also
allows you to control whether the Caller ID feature is turned on or off. The Caller ID
feature only works if you subscribe to the caller ID service provided by your local
telephone service.
