Any "News" / "Hope" for an OTA Adaptor at all?? Thank you Mikieii

My experience, before my OTA Dongle "Died" or programming was altered by Dish to disable (Again ABSOLUTELY NO help from Dish) the Over The Air Signal was MUCH better than through Hopper 3. Clarity, resolution, color all markedly improved. Dish has the best "Box" with the Hopper 3 but speaking...

Any updates/news at all on Dish's (Or anyone) having "Dongle" for outside antennas for the Hopper 3 and wired Joey??

Thanks, good idea, now it is #1 on the "List", I'll let you know how this worked out. MM

Thanks, will try USB Drive and see if Mr. Hopper notices........................

Tried antenna with a portable TV not through the Dish System, excellent signal to this TV therefore (maybe!!) no antenna pre amp or coax problem..................................Adaptor could be bad, or more likely Hopper 3, Dish will not send another Hopper 3 for me to verify..

No, in my area Direct TV is "master", Dish has better technology BUT I am concerned about their (DISH'S) Engineering capability and customer service....................

Only if they "eat" RF, there again 1000 micro-volts (ua) or so won't hurt them...................

No, the OAT is the only one, what could I try to verify Hopper operation? Also very strange that ALL of my OAT channels that were on my channels list generated by the Hopper disappeared at the same time Hopper no longer recognized the ES194858..................

SAY WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT................................................

Thanks, tried horizontal, vertical, supported etc, no results. Seems that the Hopper # 3.0 and the one 2.0 input are dead, program jumbled or sadly ES194858 Adapter is DEAD, any suggestions appreciated............................. Mike

Tried new ES194858 cable ( unit to Hopper 3) no luck, have disconnected, powered, rebooted, refreshed, tried all 3 connections on Hopper 3, various combinations of anything I could think of--physical inspection in and outside of adapter(ES194858) show no problems. Outside antenna is providing...

After just installing two new OTA antennas to get "blacked out" network channels and several local stations my Hopper 3 now refuses to "See" my OAT. I have rebooted, refreshed, tried all the inputs to the Hopper 3, called Dish--DAH what is a dongle ???? All was working well, tv screen froze...

You are correct, being a Field Engineer for Motorola Communications for many years "In the Day" we always said "Over The Air Transmitters" old habits, yes when I began most higher power transmitters still had tubes for "Final" Amplifiers--thanks again to everyone for for their help and...

When I located the "Settings" the "Bridging" was already "on", but utilizing an additional tuner from my Dish menu allowed me to view the same or a different OAT signal--thank you and all who helped for excellent answers to my question......................
