If they would provide the guide details I'd do it in a heart beat.

Not worth losing the guide...and we and Dish know it.

Also not worth losing PTAT on the Hoppers in my opinion.

I don't know about the Hopper, but I have the Flex Pack without locals on a 722k & I get guide data.

They were on sale this past weekend for $300 with Lifetime included. Ended Sunday. Keep watching tivocommunity for the next sale, which seems to happen at least every other month.

Roamio 1TB OTA Flash sale!

You don't lose the guide if you use the OTA module.

Wonder if this means the dual OTA tuner will be enabled soon. Dropping locals is kind of difficult if you only have the one tuner.

Dual tuner has been activated with Hopper 3 U500 software update.

YES.! I got that software and I can confirm I can record two ota channels at the same time. So when they said May 29th for the software they really meant June 29th.

So both of the Rumors I posted in the pub are now confirmed.

Thanks for your support Pub Members.

I have the flex pack with no locals and I get guide data for locals using the USB OTA adapter

Does the dual tuner feature work for the HWS or just the Hopper 3?

Does anyone know if the dual tuner feature works yet for the Wally?

It work on HWS if you fire update it to U235. The current software is U234 so the update is only to enable support for the dual tuner OTA.

Well darn it, now I'm gonna have to order a dual tuner ota adapter just because.
