    Official - I have a Hopper 3 Thread!

    Hopper 3 (only) installed today. Two hours total, including a new eastern Dish and LNB, new routing, and the normal set up. The installer, Sampson, delivered by far the best Dish installation experience ever, and I've had several. In addition to being efficient outside, he was quite...

    Ipad Dish App

    I recall they said sept. On the 29th they roll out their google logitech box, which includes using iPhone as a controller. Looking at that as well as the much cheaper apple tv. With an iPad playing dish, you could have the missing promise of slinging HD to tv 2 or 3 using the iPad app...

    programming Harmony One for 922 - missing codes like "Search"

    This is good news. I kept my 622 remote. How do I set it up to work the 922. Don't want to lose the 922 remote function but just have two
