    Loss of Signal in Rain

    Good idea! I do have the OTA antenna hooked up but "unscanned" them. Maybe I will put back in for rainy weather!

    Loss of Signal in Rain

    Is it normal to have a complete loss of signal during a thunderstorm? I would have expected the signal to drop, but not go completely away.

    Proposed two Hopper 3 Installation

    You need a DPH42 switch that uses the first three ports on the LNB. See the drawing I posted at the front of this post.

    Are you using the dish remote that came with it? Do it first and then any aftermarket ones you want to use.

    Hopper 3 EHD Questions

    That is what I was thinking also. When I select to transfer files from my EHD it will only allow to my Hopper, but when I use DVR to watch a show it will show my wife's if I select it. What do you think about having two EHD on one Hopper? Thanks for you help!

    Hopper 3 EHD Questions

    It has been connected all the time to my Hopper. I have not tried moving it yet. That is why I posted the questions as I wanted to make sure it was possible without shutting them both down. Should the non-EHD Hopper be able to see the EHD files on the EHD Hopper? I can see the Hopper files on my...

    Cooling usb fan. Necessary or absurd?

    While using the hopper 3 in my RV, I put slim foam pieces along the sides on both top and bottom to secure it when traveling, even though I turn it off also. I guess it also helps with ventilation also, but that wasn't the original intention.

    Cooling usb fan. Necessary or absurd?

    If I were to put a usb fan on the Hopper 3, I would not plug it into the Hopper USB port, but rather use an USB power supply in an outlet.

    Proposed two Hopper 3 Installation

    I went thru a local dealer in Tulsa, Graves Satellite. He/Dish furnished my H3, Hub, & 2 wireless joeys. However, I purchased the Bluetooth adapters and OTA USB. He charged me less than advertised prices and also gave me the 1000.2 WA dish. However, in all fairness, I did install it all so he...

    Proposed two Hopper 3 Installation

    OK, I installed the hybrid LNB with the Hopper 3, wireless joeys, and mounted the OTA antenna in the attic and tuner and connected. Working great and getting the Fox station 50 miles away in Tulsa now. I am ready to upgrade to the second Hopper 3 and joey. When I change out the hybrid LNB with...

    Hopper 3 Software Version U939 40.0 Remote Control Color Button Menu Shortcut List

    Those are the color functions on my Harmony remote also. I like the way the Hopper detects which remote I am using. When using the Harmony 665 it displays the colors and their function. on the sub menus. When using the Dish remote, it tells you which Dish remote key to push. I definitely like...

    OTA Hopper 3 Signal Status

    My Fox channel has been showing "good" around 70% (it is 50 miles away) and has been clear. However, I am considering adding a preamp to the antenna. In the near future, I will be adding another Hopper3 and OTA with a splitter from the antenna, so I figure, I will need a preamp anyway.

    OTA Hopper 3 Signal Status

    Got my Hopper 3 working and my antenna and OTA tuner installed. Signals coming in OK. My question - Is there any way to view the signal strength status for a station other than going to the OTA app in the menu? I think my VIP 211k displayed the signal status in the info screen for the channel.

    Dish wally compatible dish?

    Just purchase a 1000.2 dish on-line, mount it, and use the Wally to align it! Just like many RV'ers do all the time.
