    Dish Aiming & Eastern Arc Received on WA DPH LNB????

    Yikes. Well, color me confused. I'll try that. I also screwed up on my table lookup in the DPP 1000.2 manual (see my reply to Brussam). I may have more than one issue, but definitely heading in the right direction with guidance from you guys. Thanks! Cheers. Gene UPDATE: got it working, Tampa...

    Dish Aiming & Eastern Arc Received on WA DPH LNB????

    OK, so in my defense (although I've never been actually diagnosed as dyslexic), in the DPP 1000.2 manual which I've faithfully printed out, I found my nums in the row for zip 057XX instead of 577XX (doh!). I'll try these correct numbers next time the DW isn't watching or recording anything...

    Dish Aiming & Eastern Arc Received on WA DPH LNB????

    Hi guys. I am a new bee. I live in an RV. I move every 1 to 2 months. I have a 1000.2 antenna with a DPH WA LNB on a nice tripod connected to a Hopper 3 via a hybrid solo hub. At my last location (SE Minnesota), I used WA EL, AZ & SK and after about three hours of reading, aiming & re-aiming...

    Dish Network with DirectTV dish

    I just went through this. I bought a 2005 motorhome that had a MotoSat dish that would cost $850 to update. If your antenna was installed when the coach was new like mine was, so much has changed with sat TV technology, but these guys are the guys to ask. Good luck!

    Scott's Mini Hopper 3 Review

    Hey gang, I know I'm late to the party (new to Dish and to this forum), but thought I'd weigh in anyway. Plus, I thought you guys might enjoy hearing from "the lunatic fringe" on OTA. I live in an RV full time, but have just completed a self-install of a Hopper 3, etc. Awesome! I'm still...

    Scott's Mini Hopper 3 Review

    Hey, do you know if you can pair multiple remotes to a single Hopper 3? My wife and I like to each have our own remotes like we had when we were DTV customers. She's been using my daughter's 40 at her house and I've just decided to bite the bullet on getting used to the 52. Since I had no...

    Scott's Mini Hopper 3 Review

    Yeah, good points all. And don't forget the REALLY MINOR DEMOGRAPHIC like those of us who don't live in a sticks 'n bricks house at all, but travel around the planet (at least the not water part) aimlessly in an RV full time. I wonder what the Census says about folks like us? Last I heard, of...

    Scott's Mini Hopper 3 Review

    Hey Bobby, "diagnostics screen" sounds like something I'd like to see. No Menu button on 52.0 remote. Other? Also, has anyone posted a set of shortcuts for the 52.0 like I saw for the older remote? Brand new to this stuff, so have only been with dish and hopper3 for 48 hours (still downloading...

    Hopper 3 wait time

    Well, I've been a DISH customer for two days now. Love the Hopper 3 and a single Joey 2 in my RV. Had to buy all my equipment since DISH won't lease to RVers. It was a BIG surprise when after I subscribed to the America's Top 200. No promotional pricing of $39.99 a month for a year) - in an RV...

    Hybrid LNB Wiring Diagrams

    Thanks for the response, MR! It's great to connect with other full-timers who are successfully using what I'm currently attempting to get up and running. What do you use to aim your dish... just one of those cheap little satellite finders (peaking meter)? If so, any tips for me? I assume you...

    Can I watch my Hopper DVR with dish disconnected?

    Outstanding! One less thing to worry about. By the way, I powered up the H3 last night for the first time. No surprise I got the failed installation test screen. No reception. Today I'll try bi-passing an A/B switch yhat was already in this (used) coach, and try re-aiming the dish. Also, Jerry...

    Dish service

    Now that's very interesting... I live full-time in an RV (motorhome) and as such feel I'm largely on my own for install. I just purchased a Hopper 3, a Joey 2.0 and solo hybrid hub with a 1000.2 antenna with a DPH LNBF sitting on a TV4RV heavy duty tripod with aiming gear. I'm pulling all the...
