    Adding an additional Hopper or 211k

    We want to have an HD receiver that's not attached to our current Hopper for a studio above our detached garage. It has a single RG6 cable run to it, and when we had a 722k, we had a 211k at that location. I now have a single Hopper receiver, and have read that we could still potentially add...

    Audio Problems on Satellite Local (Bozeman, MT)

    There have always been audio problems with a satellite local here in Bozeman, MT (18-00, ABC) since Dish added the locals in our market many years ago. The issue has been intermittent, but the audio judders and gets way out of sync, so that sometimes you can't even make out what's being said...

    2 Hopper + OTA Question

    722 and 211k EHD (External Hard Drive) Enabling Fee Combined?

    I have had some trouble with customer service over the $40 EHD enabling fee. I have been trying to get a 211k enabled, and after three phone calls it's still not working. A charge showed up on my online statement, so I hooked the EHD to my 722, and it works. I called back and told them I...

    HD-Only Package Questions

    Hi- I'm going to be getting Dish at the end of the month, and I think I know what I want, but I have a few questions. I want TurboHD Bronze, which I know is not available, but can be asked for, and has the channels I want. I want an HD DVR, and was happy with the 622 I had several years ago...
