No trees or shrubs to obstruct LOS. That makes me feel better that your numbers are roughly the same even in California. I don't seem to notice much pixelation anymore. Could have just been the hopper working out its kinks for those first few days. Ran another check switch just to see if the...

I'd agree with both statements. Programs do seem softer than Directv. That's a good description of the difference that I see. The artifacts I see on the Wireless Joey could be related to the modulation/coding scheme between the access point and the Joey. I'm just an HD only kind of guy...

From what I can tell, Directv seems to have an edge on PQ. I have noticed on the wireless Joey that the picture does have more digital noise on all channels. The Hopper 3 has a good PQ, but I think Directv has a slightly better picture. Of course, this is my opinion. Would it be enough to...

All transponders are in the 40s just on 110. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The one thing I missed the most was accessing and monitoring the tuners. Seeing search results from Netflix is a nice addition as well. It is nice not having to switch the TV over to another input and search separately.

I figured that much. I guess it's in there to get customers to think they fixed it. Like I mentioned, today the signal is back in the low 40s on 110. My satcom days in the military we had nothing of the sort, unless the dish had a servo drive and auto track. Nothing like that on the dish...

I have the wireless Joey as well. As mentioned, the guide is slow, but definitely livable. I came from direct which had a wireless system as well. The guide on direct did move faster, but if you put the client in IR mode, the genie would miss commands left and right from my harmony remote. I...

I spoke with tech support yesterday and had an interesting conversation regarding signal strength. She mentioned a signal needs to be above 25 on the Hopper 3 meter in oder to be considered good. Decent signal level was at 45 on the meter and anything over 60 was considered really good...

Well bummer. Thanks for the confirmation and appreciate the clarification.

Originally I was with Dish and the original hopper. I had an EHD connected to the original hopper and stored probably 100+ programs. After moving to another house, I had LOS issues and had to move to Directv. Stuck with Direct for 18 months and moved over to the Hopper 3 now that I am in a...

Hello everybody. Enjoying the Hopper 3 much better than the DIRECTV Genie. However, I am having some terrible dropouts during a moderate storm, and pixelation on occasions even during clear weather. I checked my sat signals just a few minutes ago with clear skies and this is what I have...

Awesome man! I was forced to Directv due to LOS issues at another house. Elevation was too low for Dish and Direct was able to get over the tree line as they are at a higher elevation. Just not a fan of the Directv UI and if I tailgated with Direct, I was stuck with only SD channels which is...

Patiently waiting on the Dish installer to show up. Stupid excited to get back to Dish Network after a 2 year hiatus with Directv. Direct hasn't been bad, but coming from a hopper prior to direct kind of spoils you. Looking forward to the Hopper 3 and 16 tuners! Sent from my iPhone using...

Same here. I have been with Dish for six years now, and they have never done me wrong. At the beginning of the year I upgraded to a 2H/2J system and I absolutely love it. I was disappointed when I found out they were coming out with a new Hopper in the next two weeks :(. However, it was my...

I understand, I guess I should have explained myself a little better. I too, upgraded two weeks ago and I would have waited if I knew a revised hopper was coming out. However, I am completely happy with my current hopper setup, so it isn't a big deal. Thanks for the clarification, Josh D.

Crap, was kinda hoping they could change the boxes out for next to nothing, but I am not sure I want to dish 200 dollars for a receiver when I can just add the adapter. DIRT, is there a way to get the sling hopper and replace the hopper 1.0 free of charge? Thanks, Josh D.

Let me know how it goes. It would be really nice if my VIP 211 could stay on the same account. I'll try to give them a call too and see what they say.Thanks,Josh D.

If so, did you have to move it over to a seperate account?Thanks,Josh D.

Exactly, none of us have threatened to switch. However, maybe if enough people "complain" about the issue then maybe Dish might rethink their stance or figure out a way to meet us in the middle. The simple fact that the installation instructions have the setup as an option (VIP/Hopper/Joey)...

I couldn't agree with you more. Dish is really hosing existing customers who are using the tailgater or use the VIP for RVing. I'm a no-go too. There is no way I am going to pay two Dishnetwork accounts so that I can tailgate 4 times a year. I enjoy the tailgaiting too much to lose it to a...

The installers in my area are not that great. When I picked up my 922 from the local dealer who was also an installer, he told me good luck installing it because he knew nothing about them. On another occasion I had an installer setup my dish with one of those cheap in-line meters. The...

Oh man, my mouth is salivating. I wonder if I will be able to do my own install. Does anybody have any info? Thanks, Josh

Awesome. Thanks.

I have a 922 with the Dish 1000.2 setup, and I had to move my dish. Normally, realignment goes pretty smooth for me, but this last round I really wanted to pull my hair out. It took me about a 1 1/2 hour to finally see all three birds. However, I have pretty good numbers for 110 and 119...
