    Use of Sports tab on Hopper 3

    I must not know how to use the Sports tab on the Hopper 3 home screen. By pressing Home, then toggling over to the Sports tab, there are Games On Today, Games On Later, and Teams. I understand the Games On sections. I have never chosen the teams that appear in the Teams section. There are 8...

    The My Dish web site usability for changing programming could be improved

    I've been out of town for 3 months. I turned off the local channels while I was gone because there were zero people here to watch the TV. I am back now. One would think that one could go to my.dish.com and go to My Programming and be able to quickly add back that package of local channels...

    Hopper 3 internal hard drive issues

    Well, I finally experienced issues with an internal drive. My owned H3 came with a Seagate ST2000VM003 drive with a 2019 build date. Suddenly one morning the DVR functions were unavailable and the screen showed "HDD Warning 760 - The content on your hard drive has become corrupted and will...

    4K Joey analog audio output

    I just added a purchased 4kJ as another occasional-use client to the H3. This time, I've re-energized a vintage late 70s Pioneer SX-780 receiver with my vintage Polk Monitor 11 speakers purchased in 1982, and a fairly vintage Samsung plasma. The Samsung rather dumbly does not have audio...

    Hopper 3 to Hopper 3 migration

    I went ahead and bought a Hopper 3 (clean reman sealed in Dish plastic) for $120 due to the monthly price changes for owned equipment. It turns out I've been running a reman myself for 4+ years, according to the back label...all this time I assumed I had started with a "new" box! I've looked...

    Change to Dish Headlines channel?

    I like to monitor channel 207 (and 151), the Headlines channel. Normally, it contained CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, Fox Business, Bloomberg, and C-SPAN in various combinations depending on whether the stock market was open or not. Yesterday, MSNBC was gone. Today, still gone. It's Fox, Fox...

    Questions about purchasing a Hopper 3

    Forgive me if this was answered somewhere; if so, I missed it. I'm thinking about buying an H3 due to the adjustments in equipment pricing around Jan. 14. I've had the same leased H3 since around 2016. I talked to support the other day about it, but I wasn't getting a complete answer. They...

    Two questions. H3 "Not Connected" message, and Dish Support response.

    1. I don't think this matters, as my H3 is connected to internet and has been for 3 or 4 years, but when I look at my account in MyDish, it shows the Hopper as "not connected". My Joeys show as Internet Connected. Anyone else see this and does it matter? The H3 has full access to apps and...
