That confirms my decision to get the red one!

Yes, at this time they have only the 52/54. Thanks for suggesting.

The Blue skin has torn and I need a new one. Dish reports they don't have a skin any more for the 40.0, but in the pictures the skin looks similar to the one they do have, the 52.0.

I have the answers I need and people keep posting. They have read and considered my issue and I owe them thanks for what they have done, but I no longer need advice on my topic.

I started my quest because Dish had dropped one of our local channels. Dish has now restored the channel. My quest is over. I appreciate your information. It is always good to learn things. Is there a way to mark a question "solved" on this forum?

No, our house is on a slab and part of it is 2-story. We used to have a house that was one-story and had a crawl space and that did make wiring and piping easier.

Thank you , Dish, for settling with Tegna and resolving my problem. I had never heard of Tegna. I see that they are the media part of the split-up Gannett. That explains why Channel 11 is so resource-starved. I see that Tegna's goal is to acquire more stations... I am closing this thread...

Thank you Tampa8. So, if the Bolt is with the antenna (and the small TV) and the mini Tivo is with the Hopper and the main TV, how does the miniTivo connect? To the TV, and if so via what kind of connection? Or does it show up as a streaming app, and if so will the Tivo remote (or the mini...

Yes, both of the Joeys are wired. Thank you again. I have copied your two replies and the illustrations. We will definitely document the cables as we go.

Thanks ethanlerma. I know exactly where the splitter is in the attic. I just didn't have the informtion you have just given me. We do have 2 Joeys.

Thanks llokey. We used to have an outdoor antenna in the attic of our former house. This one has an aluminum reflector surface on the bottom side of the styrofoam layer of insulation. I think I heard that this would/might block the antenna. And we'd still have to get the antenna signal to the...

I also can't record it and I don't want to pay that much per month. Dish meets all of our other needs.
