Kind of a long story but I think it is important to cover all the details. My system consist of 2 hopper with slings and 2 joeys. Both hopper with slings have ota modules plugged into usb ports. Out of no where, 1 hopper kept saying hard drive failure unplug and replug. I tried this multiple...

Any idea as to how much extra space it takes up? I would think it is different for each event, so just a general idea would be nice to know. Example like 1gb recording + 10mb "prepare for mobile" attachment file.

Does anyone happen to know if selecting the prepare for mobile option takes up more space on the hard drive? I would assume that it does but thought I would ask. I use the transfer option a lot and was curious as to if I had everything on my hard drive already prepared for mobile, if it would...

Ok, that is good to know.

Thank you Voyager6. When I was a child I had always notice the picture quality was not great using a big antenna on multiple tvs but I never knew why. I am aware that technology has improved and we have switched to a digital signal. I was very surprised by how clear the picture came in after...

Thank you all for your input. I called dish after posting earlier. The tech guy said I was asking questions that have never been asked before but knowing what he knew about the equipment and how it works. He said yes, I should be able to use a 2nd ota adapter on the 2nd hopper as long as I used...

So it has been a while since I posted here and finally got my ota tuner set up today. I was under the impression I could not use ota and pta at the same time. Correct me if I am wrong, this photo shows that I can use both at the same time? One other question. I have Winegard HD8200U Heavy Duty...

Thank you. I used the website you gave me. It looks like in order to get all the locals I will need a big directional pre amp roof antenna. The channel my son watch the most said I need it (pbs). There are a lot of trees around us as well.

Sounds great. Now I will just have to go find an antenna for outside my house.

Thank both of your for your help. I would have gotten one a long time ago if I had known this information. From what you have told me, I think I will be very happy using the prime time anytime on 1 hopper and the ota on the other. I like prime time anytime because I found a few shows that it...

I just got off the phone with dish from ordering my ota adapter. I have been reading some about the ota. I saw some that look like the offer 2 ota tuners. I am unsure if that is the one I ordered (price was $30). Does that mean I would hypothetically be able to record 2 channels plus 2 ota...

Awesome, that is exactly what I needed to know. One other question. I have noticed people without dish and only digital antenna will pick up some over the air channels that dish does not provide. For example dish provides a local channel 11 thv (cbs). But people with antenna only will pick up...

I have 2 hoppers with sling and 2 joeys. The past couple of months I have lost a couple of over the air channels briefly due to contract issues between dish and the providers. I love prime time anytime. So my question is. Can I hook 1 hopper up to the usb over the air antenna and leave the other...

To force a software update, you have to hold the power button down for 3-5 seconds to make the DVR reboot. That is how i make mine "check/download" and update if it is ready to go to my DVR but mine is a DVR522, so we may not even have the same software versions. It will take it a few minutes to...

The software version i named off is the software for the DVR. My DVR is a DVR 522 so if you have a different one your software may upgrade to a different version than mine. If you haven't gotten new software yet, the only thing you can do is hold the power button down on your DVR untill the unit...

I noticed yesterday (7-22-2009) that my pocketdish AV700E and dvr522 are working fine together again. I now have software version L534GALD-N. Hopefully we won't have this problem again but i imagine we will after a few years because this is actually the 2nd time i have had to deal with this...

Yes that was a typo, sorry about that. My dvr 522 has software L532. My dad's dvr 625 has software L531. And yes, the dvr software that still works with my pocketdsih is L531. My dvr worked fine with my pocketdish while it had L531, then the day they put L532 on the dvr the pocketdish no longer...

I have DVR 522 with software version L532GALD-N. That is the DVR that is no longer working with my pocketdish. The other DVR that i went and used was my dad's, he has DVR 625 with software version L5321GALD-N. After dish network updated my software to L532 is when i couldn't copy stuff anymore...

I've been seeing a lot of people with this problem on here, it is from a software update that dish network did. I don't think they did it on purpose but the only way to get them to fix it is call them and tell them you didn't have any problems untill they did the software update and get them to...

I have the av700e and DVR522, mine started doing the same thing your is doing on april 1st 2009. We will just have to wait for dish network to do another software update to fix the problem. But they won't fix it unless you call them and tell them it is happening to you. This happened to me back...

I have the dvr 522 and pocketdish av700e. I am having the same problem as the rest of you. I actually had almost this same problem happen back in 2007, back then when i would try to copy the programs to the pocketdish the dvr 522 would do it for maybe 5 or 10 minutes then it would shut down and...
