    I would like to be considered. I design automated test systems, write and debug code in 5 languages 3 of them are dead now and do system level trouble shooting for a living. I am a sports fan but mostly NFL , Go Pack GO, NASCAR, some Twins and Brewers baseball and if it has Aussie Rules Footie I...

    Dish dropped the AMC channels! Why didn't I see any threads with people whining on this forum? Next thing you know we will miss a lawsuit involving Dish. Tom

    Dsih Online?

    Is it just me not knowing how to use it, probable, or is Dish Online fairly useless? If it is just my ignorance is there a how to on this site? I would like to be able to search for shows in the guide and not get VOD, PPV and channels I don't subscribe to in the results. I would like it if when...

    Hopper Joey at same location Joey connects to other Hopper location wiring Tech in house.

    Thanks for the help. The installer had never done a 2 hopper install and he was not sure that what I wanted could be done. I gave him the website address and printed out the pdf files for him. He was impressed that you could get a response that fast for a question here. Thanks Again Tom

    Hopper Joey at same location Joey connects to other Hopper location wiring Tech in house.

    The title says it, how would this be wired up. Tap at the Hopper, Joey location and then what at the antenna in end? Another tap with Second Hopper or just wire like normal? Thanks Tom

    Using of an extra Joey at the same television as a hopper.

    That is exactly what I was thinking and with any luck dual Hopper integration will be functional before I get the TV for upstairs and move the Joey.

    Using of an extra Joey at the same television as a hopper.

    Yes I am scheduled for an install next week. I was going to holdout until they had Hopper integration working but one of my 722Ks has a hard drive that is dying and so I decided to upgrade to 2 Hoppers and 2 Joeys but I do not have a television in one location yet, new house and the kids moved...

    Using of an extra Joey at the same television as a hopper.

    I am going to have an extra Joey for several month until I buy a new TV and was wondering if I could place the Joey with the living room Hopper and have it connect to the Hopper in the bedroom? I only have one Coax connection going to either location from my garage but could it be done with...

    DISH Sues Networks

    Actually other than to watch a football game and early morning local news in spring and fall so I know if I need to wear a coat or not I do not think I have actually watched or recorded anything on the broadcast networks in couple of years. If Dish had actual TWC local weather on the 8s and TWC...

    Chairman of NBC no fan of auto hop

    We are already paying the broadcasters directly for the programming they provide. I feel they through the you have to watch our advertisements argument out when they started making us pay them to see our locals by black mailing service providers and using the all digital conversion to decrease...

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    That will never happen. The FCC is controlled by the Politicians in Washington and none of them are going to risk P***ing off anyone that can come back at them by broadcasting to millions of people telling them lies, slanting stories against them or worst of all the truth:).

    Questions about The Hopper?

    I am sure these questions have been answered before but I have not found them. How deep are the video buffers on the hopper 1 hour, 2 hours or something else also are the buffers active when the unit is in standby meaning you turn the unit on and can rewind to the start of a tuners buffer or is...

    So whos NOT getting a Hopper due to lack of OTA?

    Who is NOT getting planning on upgrading because of the fact that OTA is missing at launch? Not me. I could care less about OTA in the Hopper/Joey, but I would have to try to care less and that would take to much effort.:)

    Hopper Poll

    I will probably switch after the 2 hopper system works as one whole home DVR and hear what users particularly from this site have to say about the systems.

    DISH HOPPER SPEC SHEETS

    That's a trick question because you could never get all the members of Congress and HoR to decide on WHICH train they would take!! :D:D:D Accurate and funny. The Democrats would want to go left and the Republicans would want to go right. Accurate and funny also. Ding Ding Ding Hopefully the...

    DISH HOPPER SPEC SHEETS

    No, but if a train leaves Washington DC traveling east at 47 MPH carrying all the members of Congress and the House of Representatives and a plane leaves London’s Heathrow airport traveling west at350 MPH how long would it be before the two meet.? Ok the first one did read a bit like a math...

    DISH HOPPER SPEC SHEETS

    Well 12 tuners does seem excessive to me but I think I would pay $100 to $150 upfront for an additional Hopper versus a free Joey for a 4 TV system if the lease is still $7.00 each. That way you get the 6 tuners and if one Hopper goes down you still have 3 tuners, 3 TVs and everything on your...

    DISH HOPPER SPEC SHEETS

    If a Hopper is $7.00 a month and a Joey is $7.00 a month and Hoppers can share what is on each others hard drives why would you lease any Joeys? Four televisions four hoppers twelve tuners, twenty four during prime time if you like, seems like a good setup that would cost the same lease wise as...

    Please tell me about your 'slow' 722k receiver.

    I have 2 722Ks and one has a short lag when pushing the Guide button on the remote, just long enough that you hit it again and go to the favorites selection menu. Other than that both have been rocking for two years or more and I have had no other slow reaction from either box.

    Starz to HBO change.

    Hi: I probably just missed the thread about this but I received a call Friday and the person on the line said they were a Dish rep and that they would like to change the free Starz for a year to free HBO Cinemax and I agreed assuming that this was just part of the Dish Disney thing that is...
