    Scott's Mini Hopper 3 Review

    Sadly that was what I was just told so I guess all of Vermont can't use the H3 as well. I was further disappointed that they did not have a list so that customers would be contacted once the "4 satellites" problem was fixed. This seems like a fundamental design flaw.

    Satellite AV Contest - GEOSATpro microHD - Enter to Win - Drawing on 6/11/2012

    I can vividly recall doing my first show as a DJ on a local radio station. I learned early on to respect the power of the media and the ability of media to affect a community. Pretty great learning for a 13 year old. Of course, I can also remember the looming revelations that there was a...

    Questions about The Hopper?

    Folks, I am interested in how "hot" the Hopper typically runs. My 722 is a bit of a "burner-plate" requiring its own fan controlled environment. I would like to redesign my screening room set up and would like to plan in advance for the unique needs of the Hopper--if there are any. Also, has...

    Retailer Chat Recap: July 9, 2009

    Does anyone have an authoritative answer as to which Dish receivers will be affected by the TIVO controversy? I have read reports that say it will be only the older models but I assume the the technology used in my 722 is relatively the same. The company will NOT give me a straight answer to...

    DirecTV interest in VOOM?

    I applaude your sentiment. I wish I had your insight and recorded some of my favorite VOOM moments before Charlie unceremoniously flipped the switch. After eight years with Dish, my loyality could be bought by Direct with even a portion of the HD content I came to expect from Dish. The only...
