    Upgrade Help OTA related

    Yeah, I still have the pigtail he fashioned on top of my Hopper. I really thought Dish had integrated OTA into it's latest and greatest device. Kinda disappointed to tell the truth. Now, don't get me wrong, the Hopper is a mighty fine piece of equipment, but now I have to buy another piece to...

    Upgrade Help OTA related

    Hey all, I just got upgraded from my 722k to the Hopper3 this morning and things went fairly well. The tech installed the DVR and one Joey w/o much issue. The one thing left lacking though was his inability to hook my OTA to the DVR. The coax that the OTA comes in on (regular RG, terminated...

    Hopper 3 Questions

    Hey all, I right on the verge of agreeing to a pretty nicely priced upgrade from the ViP722k to the Hopper 3. I have been in communication w/ a DIRT member here and she has been a trooper answering all of my questions. Now I have technical questions and who better to ask then the enthusiasts...

    722K and Sling Adapter

    Quick question, I have a VIP722K with an EHD plugged into the rear USB. Can I put a USB hub back there and run both the EHD and the Sling Adapter? If it will work I have a powered USB 6-port hub so I assume I could also hook multiple EHDs up, right? Thanks!!

    Need to vent!

    Update and it's not good...... Update: Dish tech arrived as scheduled (the 2nd time), but that didnt go off without a hitch. I got a call from Dish at 0735'ish about my scheduled appt for that day. The tech was knocking on my door not more than 10 minutes later. I thought that was awfully...

    Need to vent!

    So, on 8/6 I chatted Dish for severe signal drop issues w/ just partly cloudy skies. It appears in Menu 6-1-3 I am only getting signal from satellite 72 and 61.5 drops all the time. I've rebooted the receiver, done a check switch, etc. per recommendations. Anyhow, on 8/6 Dish said today a.m...

    6.3 UHF Remote

    I have a ViP 722 that was traditionally controlled by the 5.3 IR remote however, my dog chewed it up and now the TV functions do not work. I have a spare 6.3 UHF remote laying around and wonder if that will work. I pulled the colored chip at the bottom of the front and one side is blue w/ the...

    Charged for VOD that I didn't order

    I as well had a VOD charge (Leap Year???). Had to fight tooth and nail to get it removed. CSR stated company policy against crediting a VOD. All the purchase histories were empty and when I told them this she said that the charge history uploads off the receiver to Dish Network and on to the...

    DISH loses 4 more HD channels - 3 Return

    I think the disgruntled masses are speaking. Looks like we pee-ons have E* chat down. Bad time to find a billing issue I guess.

    Timers and Satellite Signal

    Okay, here is the situation; I set Lost to record and also set V to record (back to back on ABC). Something happens whereas V does NOT record and Lost gets it's last 5 minutes chopped off. When scrambling to the TV2 to try and record V as not to miss too much I find that mysteriously tuner 2...

    NFL HD jerky last night

    Not only was the feed jerky the HD feed was 5-7 seconds behind the SD feed (not certain if this is normal or not).
