Thanks for the replies - sorry for the delay, been out of town. 2 TV setup for now, no 4k but possibly adding a 3rd w/4k upstairs in the near future. Was figuring 2 wired connections and a wireless for upstairs. My setup now is 2 Hoppers, one in family room & one in living room (same floor...

So, as part of the ATT/Time Warner merger I will soon become a DirecTV customer, moving after over 15yrs with Dish. I am in the Atlanta area; can anyone tell me what equipment I might receive?I'm assuming a Genie, but what is the latest model? And will the installer will be able to use the same...

Install went great. Sucked it up & cleaned the room enough to be "presentable"; i.e. the tech had room to work in. He was great. Thanks for all the feedback.

Ugh, nothing as bad as animal feces, lol - just a ton of boxes, clothes and other junk. In the process of swapping my daughter's room & a den/"storage" room and most of the stuff is still in the room. I'm inclined to use the old "hey, let me help you with that, I'll just run upstairs & plug it...

I have a 2-hopper + joey coming. Current system is 2- 722s, one with the second tuner feeding an SD TV in an upstairs bedroom. The problem is the bedroom is a complete mess, and I would be embarrassed as hell to let an installer in there. Yes, the easy solution is to clean up but long story...

And that's why I went for the 2-hopper setup. Joey will be in a bedroom where I don't need PiP

You are correct, sir! Working on remodeling a den & will probably end up with a wireless Joey in there somewhere in the future... Posted Via The FREE SatelliteGuys Reader App!

Thanks for your replies, guys. Have a 2-Hopper system w/ a Joey and an OTA module on the way for install next Wednesday, all thanks to DIRT's mikeH! :D

Trying to decide on equipment - can someone tell me the advantages of a Hopper+Joey+SuperJoey vs. 2 Hoppers+2 Joeys? Thanks... Forgot to add I have an OTA attic antenna and will want a 4-tv (3 now, adding soon) setup. I assume I'll have to splurge for the OTA module. Also, how is PIP handled...

Thank you, sir!!

Hi all, I am planning on upgrading my 2 722s. I do not presently have the EHD enabled on either receiver; what do I have to do to transfer all the recordings off my two receivers when I transfer? Is there still a charge to enable the EHD? Is there a way this can be waived for a one-time...

Hi, current long-time customer interested in upgrading from 2 ViP722s to a Hopper w/sling and two Joeys (or possibly Super Joeys, once I understand the difference). Thanks!

So what's the best way to do it without missing recording options? There are times when I want to record HD off the sat, and watch OTA - will both options show up?
