    Running out of event timers & it's time for a change, Advice needed...

    Right now, with everyone's kind help, I think switching over to the hopper will be the best option. Now, I just need to figure out how to keep our bill down. Another quick question - how big is the Joey? DISH's website says something about putting it behind a TV, but it looks a little too...

    Two things... 1) Is there any advantage/disadvantage to going through a retailer? I'm just about to finish up with my 2-yr contract, so would I have to cancel & send back my equipment, and then re-start with a retailer? (I'm not opposed to another contract - as a matter of fact I would like...

    Thank so much for the info... I figured that if I decided to go with (2) 722k I would have to do the dual remote thing (our tv has (2) hdmi inputs), but it is wonderful getting confirmation from those who know more. I honestly don't want to deal with that option, so that's why I was looking at...

    So could DISH set me up with 2 Hoppers and 1 Joey? Or would I have to still go though a local retailer? Also, if I just added another 722k, is it true they can't access each other?

    I knew the kids shows were definitely causing some problems, and I was considering the 2 receivers option, but I didn't know if it would be better to go with another 722k, or go for the hopper. How is the best way to hook up 2 receivers to one tv?

    Running out of event timers & it's time for a change, Advice needed...

    Yup, that's pretty much my problem. Almost all the shows we watch are on all the time. I rarely see our event timers below 500. It's about to get real bad during the fall. That's when I have to review my shows on a weekly basis to make sure everything is taping.

    Just because someone already brought it up... Can I have two recievers & still access all of my shows on one tv? (Hopper or 722k)

    During the regular season we generally tape about 10-15 broadcast shows. We do have a 2nd TV in the bedroom, but I want all my shows available to watch in the livingroom.

    I'm sorry, my first post may have been too long & confusing... I've read about using weekly timers, etc to fix the problem, and I'm not happy with any of those solutions. What I'm trying to figure out is what I should change about my set-up to fix the problem. (Especially since I'm at the...

    I do have my shows set to "New" vs "All", but it still shows up in the event timer list even though it is skipped.

    Running out of event timers & it's time for a change, Advice needed...

    We currently are with DISH & we have (1) 722k DVR. We definitely need to switch up what we have, and I'm looking for advice... Our problem is that we are constantly having problems with running out of event timers (576?), and this causes the DVR to not record shows even if there is a timer for...
