    Hopper 3 - DVR Issue?

    I've been with Dish for about 5 months now. For some reason it seems to have problems with recording new episodes Pawn Stars and Counting Cars on History Channel. For example on Pawn Stars last night it starts to record at 8:04 PM instead of 7:59 PM. So I missed the first 4 minutes of the...

    additional 52.0 remote for Hopper

    I only needed 3 remotes but saw on eBay 8 brand new ones for $60 so I was like heck yeah. I don't mine having extras. You can never have too many remotes. I am newer to Dish so the 52.0 is what I am used to and perfect since I never used the older one. Only thing difference you may run...

    additional 52.0 remote for Hopper

    Nope it won't mess with your original remote. I have at least two 52.0s on each of my Joeys and on my Hopper 3.

    HopperGo question

    I paid $31 shipped for my HopperGo and it was brand new. Of course this was off of eBay. To me that is worth the money. For $99 it is not worth it.

    DirecTV to Dish?

    I can't speak for the "seek" but as far as the rule of 5, it will continue to record them just like DTV did. It will just keep the most recent 5 and the others will be deleted. It will not stop recording once it has 5 saved.

    DirecTV to Dish?

    Only complaint I had is I did cancel it 5 days out. DTV was supposed to shut if off on a Sunday morning, Dish was installing it on a Saturday. Turned out the DTV rep put it in for Saturday and when I woke up I had no access. Was not a huge deal since Dish was coming that day anyways. I just...

    DirecTV to Dish?

    When you call DTV you can request when to have it shut off anyways. I did my 5 days out. Dish did offer same day install since I signed up before noon but I decided to schedule it on the upcoming weekend. Like I said before call DTV and cancel and see what kind of deal they make you. Then...
