    Dish dispute with KFJX Joplin

    They either got an extension or someone ran the notification by mistake. I'm sure of what it said because I rewound it and looked at it again. But I only saw it once which is unusual.

    Diplexer with Wally

    I used a good quality AB switch in my mobile home to do the very thing you are wanting to do. I did this with a VIP722K and it worked fine. I don't see why it wouldn't work with a Wally.

    National PBS Gone

    It would have been nice if they would have told us it was going away. I found out when my timers stopped working. I checked my last bill, it was still showing I was being charged for it, but when the autopay occurred it was less than the bill. See what the next bill says.

    Hopper 3 and Dish Anywhere

    I have a VIP722K with a Sling Adapter. I understand how this works, the Sling Adapter uses tuner 2 in the 722. If a timer starts a recording on tuner 2 or someone at the house is using tuner 2 to watch live tv you lose control with DA. Since the Hopper 3 has 16 tuners and built in Sling is it...

    211 series receivers

    I believe the 211 has two OTA tuners so that provides some additional options if you can receive OTA stations.

    211 series receivers

    Keep in mind the VIP 211K only has one tuner. So when it is recording a program you can watch what is being recorded or a pre-recorded program. You can't watch a live program while recording a different live program.

    VIP 211 DVR activation fee

    I understand I can add an EHD to my VIP 211 and with a onetime activation fee of $50 give it DVR capabilities. If I read right this onetime fee is good of all 211's in my house. Question, if I add a Wally to the mix would it be covered by the onetime activation fee or would I need an additional...

    Wally Questions

    I have a sling adapter on my current 722K. Don't suppose that would work on a Wally?

    Wally Questions

    Thanks for the response. I am eventually going to an H3 system and was planning on a couple of 211s for backup to the H3 and for use in our camper. Got to thinking about the Wallys and thought that might be better than the 211s.

    Wally Questions

    I have some questions about the Wall. 1) Does the Wally have the same UI as the Hopper 3? 2) Can I connect a Wally where I currently have a VIP 211K installed? 3) Will Dish allow two Wallys on the same account with a Hopper 3? 4) The Dish website indicates that the Wally supports...

    DPH42 now available

    I saw the attachment, that is what generated the question. I guess I'm basically asking will the solo hub pass through the power if the inserter is installed on the Hopper side.
