    How do you look up the what satellite and TP for a channel is on a Hopper3? I’ve forgotten the button sequence, and a search here did turn it up. Thanks

    Weird On Demand problem

    I’ve never used the On Demand feature before on my Hopper3. I thought I would give it a quick test by asking for something free. I chose “See No Evil”, S9 Ep5 for the test. Normally this show is on ID 192. Starting the download went fine, but it did take awhile (about 30 minutes even though I...

    Hopper 3 and 40.0 remote

    Can the 40.0 remote be used with a Hopper 3 in IR mode (and yes I know your have enable IR reception)? And if not, are there any other Dish remotes that will work with a Hopper 3 as an IR remote?

    Broken LNBA

    I had one of the three ports on my 13 year old DPP LNBA die. It still got all three WA satellites on the other two ports. Fortunately I had a spare LNBA I could quickly swap in. But I was curious if installers see this kind of single port failures very often? I would have expected the whole LNBA...

    MPEG2 Western Arc shutoff

    I got my “Final Notice” e-mail today saying the some or all of my receivers will will become “obsolete” soon. I believe this is due to the pending MPEG2 shutoff coming to the Western Arc. I have two questions: 1. I have two VIP722 receivers and one VIP625 receive. As I understand it, the 722...

    VIP722 and Hopper 3 on same account

    Didn’t see anything current. Will Dish now allow a VIP722 and a Hopper 3 on the same account? I realize I would have to have separate dishes (all user owned equipment). It would be more convenient to have both receivers running during a transition period while transferring all the timers...

    Hopper 3 with no joeys

    Pardon me if this has already been covered, but I didn’t find anything in the searchs. I’ve been thinking about upgrading my VIP722 to a Hopper 3. I already have a DishProPlus LNBA on the western arc. If no Joeys are going to be used, is a Solo/Duo node required? Instead, can the Hopper 3 be...

    Magic hidden commands to reformat 722 hard drive

    Can someone point to the magic hidden commands to reformat the hard drive from the remote. This is on a 722. Search is useless trying to find this.

    1000.2 dish pointing question

    Folks, I've had a 1000.2 dish for about a year now. When I first set it up, I could never it get aligned properly so that 129 come in. Instead, I had the classic problem of getting 119 on the 129 horn, and 110 on the 119 horn. This hasn't been a problem up to now since I only had two 5xx...

    Any 4.00 5xx release notes?

    Scott (or anyone), Are there any release notes for the new 4.00 upating coming down for the 5xx receivers? Dish is doing quite a jump from 3.69 to 4.00. I'd love to think that meant we are finally getting NBR. But I shutter to think what "new" issues we might get also.
