    Official - I have a Hopper 3 Thread!

    simple question on the Hopper 3. On my old VIP722 I could click on a program and have it automatically switch channels when the program came on. Now's its just recording options. Is there a way to do this?

    Advice on upgrade?

    thanks again. The installer was pretty knowledgable. Unfortunately, he didn't have the 1000.X dish. He ended repointing mine and installed the 722's. So far every looks great. I can't believe all the HD channels I have been missing!!!!!!!!! Thanks again everyone. Should I ask to...

    Advice on upgrade?

    thanks Bobby. You guys really know the in's and out's of Dish's system. For my house, to run the second HD set I needed to receivers. They are far enough apart that I can't use one of the DVR to run the second TV. I don't think as of right now there is any other way to do this besides...

    Advice on upgrade?

    thank you everyone for the feedback and pointers. I just got off of the online chat with the CS rep. They are giving me two 722's at no charge (I didn't ask but I think I have an expensive plan with them), upgraded me to the multisport pack and charge a $15 fee for the tech to come out...

    Advice on upgrade?

    I've been a long time lurker...and I think I read where some people had some signal issues on the eastern arc? And IIRC the benefit of MPEG4 is smaller recording files on the DVR. Correct? I don't record that much so it's kinda a wash on that. Thank you for all the replies. If indeed I...

    Advice on upgrade?

    wow, thanks for the fast response. So if I order the multisport pack, dish will install the appropriate dish that will take care of the HD channel issues? Or should I request a specific dish? I have america's everything pack with HD platinum and thought I was missing some HD channels but...

    Advice on upgrade?

    Hello, I'm just looking for some advice for upgrading my current DISH system. I've been happy with my current setup but have had some HD channels that are dropping. Probably something minor with alignment, but figured this might be a good time to see if there is anything would improve my...

    Is VOOM really worth the money?

    I do actually watch lab and though it does repeat it isn't nearly as often as people make it seem. CNN repeats more than that channel!! I currently am having problems getting OTA due to some skyscrappers....even with that I love the HD variety that I am sticking with Voom. I have seen D* HD on...

    Dallas/Texas Voomers Unite!

    I know the last post was back in Nov. I was wondering if anyone has success with OTA signal for ABC in the Uptown area. I had the upgraded antenna but still no ABC. I asked the technician about the square shooter that was mentioned in the beginning of this thread and he wasn't aware of the...
