    Joey Suprise - No Coax needed

    Forgive me for being a little slow here but I have a simple question. I have two hoppers and two joeys. I do have wifi working in the house. Are you saying I could take one of the joeys loose and connect it to a tv in the spare bedroom that has no cable to it and it would work?
