I could sure use the c120 feeds and the ku dish. I live in AZ., too, so driving there would be no problem. Please pm me.

I want a microHD for 2013

This was ONE of the problems I complained to Dish regarding my Hopper and Joey. After a month and a half, I got fed up and returned to Dtv.

Mine is still working fine, including the OTA function. It's been many moons ago when I had to use my PC to bring it back to life. But, I do remember that I had tried more then 10x times before it took the firmware. Now after many years of service, it's still works, along with the external...

I switched to Dish about two months ago. When the installer went out to the backyard, he took a step back and said "D**n, I never saw some one with their own head end in their back yard" (I have seven slimlines right next to my bud). He then pulled out his iphone and started clicking away. I...

Thank you, very much appreciated.

Anyone have a link describing the differences for all HD DVRS that is currently being installed by DTV? Thanks

Thank you for the info. Had my sixth tech come out Saturday (was promised a tech supervisor, no such luck). Asked hm to check the dish and he would not do so claiming the signals for 129 were within DISH specs. He eye balled the wiring and claimed there was nothing wrong. I asked him why...

What would cause audio drop outs and minor pixelation on the 129 sat? Always happens when I first turn on Joey or Hopper in the morning and later during the day it goes away. It happens during clear skies or overcast skies. The readings on 129 are 17=46 18=46 19=44 20=45 21=56 22=45 23=45...

Thank you.

Tried disconnecting the RJ45 and still no go after an hour of being disconnected and off. Have tech coming out again today, will see what happens. Thanks

So, I am guessing that you cannot transfer files from the old Hopper to the new Hopper or to a external HD?

If the installer has to replace a Hopper, is there any way to transfer the existing recordings to the new Hopper or to an external drive? If it can be transferred to an external drive, does it have to be fat32 or ntfs and will the existing files on the drive be erased by the old Hopper when...

Thanks, good to know.
