Haunted House
My receiver automatically changes channels, adjusts volume, and more or less whatever it feels like doing...even with batteries removed from the controls. Any ideas? This makes watching television impossible, and occasionally makes me cuss loudly.

Is anyone in the home using a smartphone with the DirecTV app remote? Happened to me when I was waiting on a replacement remote I was using the app option temporarily, which going through our network apparently some ID info kept changing. So housemate was freaking out. Wasn't on purpose but it was so funny.
Alternatively a close enough neighbor could be an issue if your receiver is accepting commands from their remote.
