    Is there a difference between dish network co-ax cable vs. some premium co-ax

    The cables that I have says "Dish Network RG-59/U coaxial cable" But now I bought a Hopper, is there some better cable that can make a difference in viewing? Or is the above RG-59/U good enough?

    How do you add the hopper on my account?

    I login, then went to My Equipment. It shows my current receiver. But there is no button that says Add receiver, shouldn't there be a page for you to add or replace your current receiver?

    by the way, I'm curious at this manual http://www.mydish.com/support/receiver-manuals even a $10 radio tells you what comes with the box. And yet, there is nowhere in any guide, such as receiver user guide, or quick reference guide, that tells you what comes with the box
