I get HDNet from DirecTV.  Every Tuesday morning at 8:00 ET, they air 
10 minutes of test patterns.

There is a company that modifies some DirecTV/Dish receivers to add 
firewire ports which allows recording of HD to DVHS or a PC/Mac hard 
drive.  www.169time.com.  I don't know much about it, some people are 
happy with it, some have had problems...
