Certainly the chances are that if you own your boxes you also own the dish/LNBF. Unless you started with a leased system and have for whatever reason substituted out owned rx's for leased. Or if DiSH supplied the dish/LNBF on install. They used to be persistent about getting back the LNBF (just...

NOW they refer....

First I've ever heard of them referring a dealer.

They get touchy about that for whatever reasons. Like it's something totally nefarious. The warned me not to try to sell my bad 722 that they let me keep because they didn't want to pay shipping back. I guess they thought I was possibly lying about it being bad in order to free it up to sell....

I'm pretty sure they haven't sent self-installation kits in quite some time. Just I'd throw them that one just to mess with them. They weren't such a scrupulous outfit in past years. They have to bring out all possible gear they might need including rx's because yours might not be usable or you...

If you see something, whisper something

Why would need the newest LNBF? Lotsa hopper users must be on older ones like the DPP triple. If you've self-installed before, you can again, especially if dish is already in place. Just buy the hopper and any kind of add-on 'node' you might need (per advice here), and call in activation. Do NOT...

Are you saying that if you would purchase a hopper on ebay that had been deactivated from account and unencumbered, or perhaps a new or refurbished one from a dealer and self install, that they won't activate? I'm not asking what will they tell you prospectively just to deter you....but what...

They didn't make me get pp to have an owned 722 swapped out. Lotta other grief but not that...unless they did it w/o saying...

Interesting. Historically DiSH rx's have been operable by IR command including those (also) operable by RF remote. There's always the odd situation where RF remote is either undesired or problematic, and of course I'm sure they wanted some usability with 3rd party IR multi-remotes. Although it...

It can allow them to capture PPV revenue in cases where cx is unable or unwilling to broadband connect, but has landline. Does hopper, joey use UHF remote?

But there's no Ch. 3.

Is this going to be at all plausible?

I'm not at all suggesting viewing in anything short of full 1080p at any screen, and I think I have made that clear. I'm saying that there could have been a design decision that HD doesn't have to dictate that there can't be a central unit that serves more than 1 screen and that there still can...

No one yelled for HAL to open the pod bay doors when I saw that movie a few years ago in 70mm.

I certainly thought it would happen. Theaters are so starved for compelling product these days that a significant proportion of their offerings now consist of "retro" re-issues of decades-old successful films, often with an anniversary "justification" such as with the currently ongoing...

I was going to say somewhere in the late 80s

They would probably have to send a whole new rx

I would probably put some kind of a google blocker on as well if I could, but with good information now drowning in AI on internet search, youtube seems to be something of a refuge for some valid info.

What is purpose?!? She has tv same size that does much more

A whole-house unit could have 4 HDMI connections for 4 screens. Or use HD over coax and 4 different freq. bands. Or output ch.3 in D

Ha, not even pip.

Are they charging to send replacement? Do they not still pick up the shipping for units they want returned?

Welp, DiSH seems to be striving to put itself out of the sat business, so I guess it'll be well-set for IPTV

Huh? They were a streamlined design in half-height cabinets, which would go on to host the 322. Never had issue with them, thought they had a good, balanced look and they fit in more places (however the grand champ of small form factor was the Sony for DTV). The 3000/4000/5000 (also heard of but...
