    HopperWS High pitched noise and HD signal loss

    When Nik Walenda's Skywire Live event aired a couple of weeks ago I was watching it and Discovery kept reverting to the SD version and a very high pitched noise would start without going away until the channel was changed a few times. We thought it was bad wiring or bad dish signal alignment...

    Played the CSR roulette, I think I just solved my first problem with regular support.

    Okay so on May 14 we got our Hopper system installed, here in Puerto Rico most dish subs have two 4.5' dishes pointing towards 110 and 119. In Summer 2010 Dish started giving new customers and some who were upgrading a new dish 500 30" compact dish that eliminated the need for the two 4.5'...

    Cutting it close before the price increase tomorrow

    I just got a second hopper (2000) installed and chatted online and I was indicated that I'm being charged $10 DVR fee, $7 for second hopper and $7 for 1 joey that I have. Does this mean I'll be grandfathered? I'm just paranoid lol (Plus CSRs don't know much about it).
