    I have 3 hoppers and 2 joeys. I know I can watch any of my recordings from hopper to hopper. But if I am at the hopper in my livingroom can I set something to be recorded on the hopper in theater room or do I have set the recordings on the hopper in the theater room. The reason for this...

    3rd hopper?

    I currently have 2 hoppers and 3 joeys. I want to replace 1 joey with another hopper to get more tuners. I have spoke with 2 dish reps and both told me that I can not add another hopper, that 2 hoppers are the max. I have seen post where people said they have 3 hoppers. How do I get the 3rd...

    DISH Drops AMC Networks (AMC Back on DISH channel 131)

    I made the switch last week. I also waited as long as I could to give Dish a chance to get amc back on, but my wife does like The Walking Dead so to keep her happy I switched. It was strange having a DirecTv installer at the house when I got home from work installing Dish Network systems all...

    Switching from Dish....maybe

    Thank you. I do not want holes drilled in my floor. I have already fished all my cables including an Ethernet to all the rooms and the tech said he could not use those.

    Switching from Dish....maybe

    can i connect an Ethernet cable straight to the h-34 or does it have to run through the deca connection that the installer was saying it has to go through. he wants to drill a hole behind my router and behind my tv to run a coax for the deca unit.

    Switching from Dish....maybe

    What is the diameter of the pole that is needed for the dish. I am going to install the pole for the technician since his post hole diggers barely scratched the ground. I am having to get an auger from a friend to dig the hole. But the technician did not tell me the size pole to install.

    Switching from Dish....maybe

    Thank you, I do have a line of site for these signals but the dish will have to be moved out about 25 ft. past my dish network.

    Switching from Dish....maybe

    I am considering switching from dish but am concerned about line of site. Right now I am on an eastern arc set up with dish hitting the 72 and 61.5 signals. I have no line of site for 119, 110, or 129 due to trees. My dish setup is on a pole between 125-150 feet from my house just to clear the...

    Remote Control problems

    If your tv is hd , it might have a light sensor setting or energy savings setting that will affect a dish network ir remote. The easiest way to check is to place a peice of paper in front of the sensors on the dish receiver and and then try the remote. if it works then you need to go into the...
