    Really dumb install question...

    Install went great. Sucked it up & cleaned the room enough to be "presentable"; i.e. the tech had room to work in. He was great. Thanks for all the feedback.

    Really dumb install question...

    Ugh, nothing as bad as animal feces, lol - just a ton of boxes, clothes and other junk. In the process of swapping my daughter's room & a den/"storage" room and most of the stuff is still in the room. I'm inclined to use the old "hey, let me help you with that, I'll just run upstairs & plug it...

    Really dumb install question...

    I have a 2-hopper + joey coming. Current system is 2- 722s, one with the second tuner feeding an SD TV in an upstairs bedroom. The problem is the bedroom is a complete mess, and I would be embarrassed as hell to let an installer in there. Yes, the easy solution is to clean up but long story...

    Hopper upgrade - equipment question

    Trying to decide on equipment - can someone tell me the advantages of a Hopper+Joey+SuperJoey vs. 2 Hoppers+2 Joeys? Thanks... Forgot to add I have an OTA attic antenna and will want a 4-tv (3 now, adding soon) setup. I assume I'll have to splurge for the OTA module. Also, how is PIP handled...

    Question about External HD when upgrading to Hopper

    Hi all, I am planning on upgrading my 2 722s. I do not presently have the EHD enabled on either receiver; what do I have to do to transfer all the recordings off my two receivers when I transfer? Is there still a charge to enable the EHD? Is there a way this can be waived for a one-time...

    HBO 300 vs 9456

    So what's the best way to do it without missing recording options? There are times when I want to record HD off the sat, and watch OTA - will both options show up?

    Upgrade my dish for my 3 Brand new HD Tv's

    Don't think that'll be possible - Dish has a 4-tuner limit. The HD DVRs are 2 tuners each. You may be stuck with only 1 HD DVR and 2 HD tuners (222?). And that's if they even allow you to lease 3 HD receivers...:no

    Roof mounts/Fall Protection

    Great... That's just great... I have a 1000.2 / 722 upgrade scheduled for tomorrow, and the original installer (8 years ago) put the dish on the peak of my 2-story roof, just in front of the chimney. Wonder what'll happen? :(

    Dish HD Distribution to second TV (now and future)

    Question, which may pertain to this thread - If I have a 942 and get a 622 or 722, can I use 722 in single mode & 942 in dual (all HD capable)? Would this require a second antenna?
