    Hopper Guide Question - Channel List

    I am new to the Dish network (just received the new Hopper a few days ago and it is working great so far!). One question I had was this - on my old system, there was a way to bring up the guide, arrow over to the channel number, press a button, and then a list of shows would come up that would...
