I was lucky enough to get a second one activated, but I'm guessing I'm gonna need a second reflector.

Yeah I guess I kinda went nuclear over it. Mostly got fed up trying to communicate with some folks for whom English is CLEARLY a second language. In any event, I finally emailed and got a really nice totally helpful guy who probably should not be named, and now I have a second Hopper 3...

I get the PTAT thing, but it looks like I can't record PTAT AND say a separate recording of a show in that list, though that would solve the problem!

I did gripe and have 2 activated Hopper 3's. Now I just need to make the 2nd one work. So far it looks like I need a second dish to do so.

I may not have said it correctly, but I don't care if they see each other. I just want my TV to have it's own Hopper. Why, you ask? Because even though sixteen tuners is WONDERFUL, I still cannot make two recordings of the same show, meaning my wife and I have to coordinate before we delete a...

Well, in fact I HAVE 2 Hopper 3's, and was able to get the second one activated after speaking with someone higher up at Dish. Now all I have to do is make it work. I will put up a second dish if I must, but my wife would prefer not. I'm still trying to figure out why one can't split the...

Thank you for the answer. I have just enough tech knowledge to be dangerous. Would you mind explaining that further? I see that multiple H2's are allowed for example. Why couldn't the signal be split with switches and an isolator? Would it make any difference if the second Hopper 3 didn't...

Does anyone know why two Hopper 3's are not supported? Does anyone know a wiring diagram for two Hopper 3's where one Hopper is not seen by the other? Otherwise I will need a separate dish. Thanks!

Does anyone know why 2 Hopper 3's are not supported? Does anyone know a wiring diagram for 2 Hopper 3's where the 2nd Hopper 3 is on it's own and not seen by the other one? Thanks!

I have been a Dish user for more than 15 years, and generally love the service. Have had my Hopper 3 about 2 weeks now and love it except for one little thing. I have 1 Hopper 3 and 3 Joeys. Before, I had 3 722's and 1 712. Therefore, each person had there own timer and recorded instance of...
