I just had to replace my Hopper due to an equipment failure. With the old Hopper I could use my TV remove to turn the Hopper on and off, as well as change channels. However this no longer works using the same remote and the new Hopper. I see in the Hopper setup on how to program the Dish...

I have a hopper 3 and 1 wireless joey. The hopper is connected to the internet via Ethernet cable. The joey shows linked with good signal. The joey network menu also shows 68-72 signal strength on the wireless signal. The hopper works fine. However the picture on the joey is either choppy...

With my bill hitting nearly $100 even after downsizing my package twice over the last 5 years, I am wondering what else I can do to lower my bill. How about dropping locals? I have a Hopper and the OTA gizmo. Will I loose the guide data if I drop the locals? And how about the DishPrime Time...

I just purchased a new Hopper through Amazon. When I called to activate it I was surprised to learn that an installer had to come out to the house to do something to the Dish. I missed this in all the Promo material saying how great the Hopper is. Ok fine.... schedule an appointment....wait...

I currently have a VIP 622. 1. Can a Joey be hooked up wirelessly, or does it have to be connected to the Hopper via hard cable? 2. Will my existing antenna work, or do I need a new one? If the dish has to be changed, how do the dimensions compare? 3. What is everyone's opinion / pros and...

Yesterday I received an 'upgrade' to a 1000.4 dish for the Eastern Arc. (Signal strength is pretty poor compared to what I use to get off of 110/119) Last night I noticed that I no longer have access the ESPN interactive. I use this frequently to get the MLB scores. Espn was no longer an...

So I finally called Dish today after about a dozen calls and several emails from them to find out what this WHUP615 upgrade was about. Guy tells me I need to have my dish repointed or replaced, he wasn't even sure. He'd told me I'd get "Better Quality HD off the new satellite". Is there...

I have a VIP 622 Probably about 2.5 years old, software is L629. For the last month I have been noticing a problem whenever I am watching an OTA broadcast channel. The problem manifests in 2 ways. 1. If I pause the OTA channel, it is near impossible to watch the program when I try to...

I am having an Audio Drop problem on a single Digital OTA channel. All other channels are fine..both analog and digital. The signal is over 95%, so its not a signal strength issue. I would obviously think this is a problem with the station, but the problem has been constant for for over 3...

I currently have a Dish 500 and a 921 receiver. Although the 921 is technically still working, I'm thinking about going to a 622 because of all the problems I have with the 921 (Frequent lock ups, freezing and the ever present NOISE) My question is by simply changing the HARDWARE and...

I had a 921 for about a year and it seemed to have great reception of OTA local digital signals. However the hard drive died and I had to get a new 921 receiver. The new one seems to have issues with the OTA channels. For example on the WB station the signal meter is showing signal in the...

Came home from work yesterday and my 921 is displaying a blue/green screen that says DISK FAILURE. I can still receive the info and PPV preview channels.... but that's it. I've tried unplugging and rebooting the machine both with and without the antenna connected and with and without the smart...

I'd like to get a Delco Sirius radio for my General Motors Car. I want to keep the original look, and not put in some piece of crap Panasonic or Pioneer radio that looks like it doesn't belong. I think I have seen a couple of XM radios that would work, but I want SIRIUS so I can eventually...
