    We got the OTA but I do not have an antenna strong enough for us to even receive CBS. I really wanted to see the Broncos/Jags game today, heh.

    One Quick Question: How long do I have to watch a recorded PPV movie?

    Yes, I have 8 of the movie coupons and also have the Hopper. I'm just hoping I can use them, set it to record overnight (or when I'm home watching something else) and be able to keep it on my Hopper until I am ready to watch it. I did a chat and they said that it would work that way, and that...

    DISH Reaches Long Term Agreement with DISNEY / ESPN / ABC

    I didn't realize that it wasn't there originally. I'm new to Dish, and the Hopper, as of just a month ago. I will say that me and my wife use the autohop feature all the time. We love it to death and would be pretty letdown if they are forced to strip it away. A guy from Dish called today to...

    Well, I have to say that Dish has made me a happy customer. I just did the chat like someone suggested earlier to complain about the entire situation. I started by just letting them know I JUST signed up, I wasn't happy, and asked what they could do. They first offered $5 off for three...

    What do you do, just call or chat with them and complain about it? I've held off saying anything about it yet, but I'm going to.

    Just whatever we would need. In our living room it's just an HDTV with the Dish Hopper hooked right into it.

    Can you guys mention what you would recommend to get for OTA stuff just so I have it in case I decide to use it or this lasts a while? Something on Amazon maybe?
