I just installed the OTA Module for the Hopper with Sling and for some reason a few of the OTA Subchannels will not record..For example Channel 4 has Cozi TV as its subchannel 4.2 I see the guide info but when I hit record it does nothing and scheduling an event does not work either but the subchannel on Ch2.2 works with the record feature any thoughts?

This is a known issue where OTA channels cannot be recorded. You will need to set up a manual timer.
There are several threads about the problem. I've posted a work around that some one else originally posted.
This is it. The thread was OTA Timers Not Working" and not far below this thread.

I've copied the info. I'm just reposting what someone else posted.
This is it
I've figured out what works for me. If I bring up the channel and program I want to record, I then press the record button three times. This brings up a screen giving a few options. Tab over and select 'manual timer' which then changes the screen again and hit create, after you have made any changes you want, like start/stop time.
If you don't tab over to the Manual Timer button at the bottom, this will not work.
Any other sequence will not work.

Speedy, when do expect this bug to be fixed?
Tell Slow Poke Rodriguez to quit messing around with seester maria and get going on a fix for this.
It's not worked since May software update and the last software update I got on my hopper was on June 26th. So I'm hoping that the two month wait for the next one will be the update that fixes the name based recording on the ota sub channels.
Closest thing to fingers crossed I could find.
There won't be a fix till the next software update. When you start hearing about people getting new software, then ask them if it's been fixed. DIRT has no control over that.
