I didn't use them for awhile but I...

    H3 multiple EHD transfers..

    Not sure I've seen this posted , I'm currently transferring to all 3 of my EHD's at the same time. Nice feature to empty H3 in a hurry. I verified this by selecting different shows to each EHD and clicked on each one and see different times left.

    I have my install tomorrow of 2 hoppers and 1 joey. I have been with dish a long time and have multiple runs of coax thru out my house, some in the attic, My question is do the hoppers and joey both require a new run of cable other than what I have already?

    Pre FCC radios?

    I have recently bought a couple of Sportster 2 replays new sealed kits, no blue dot on the back. I believe they may be the older ones with the stronger transmitter, but how can I tell for sure without opening them and powering them on. Also will they still activate with the newer system. I have...

    Looks like the some HD migration off 61.5 happened this week

    I have both EA and 110-119+61.5 set up. On my 722 box that doesn't have EA I noticed the HD cinemax channels were gone yesterday. I kept my main 722 box on the 110-119+61.5 because of the skip back bug when it was on EA, so I hope they fixed it in the last update. I just switched it over to EA "...

    I have both EA 1000.4 and a 500 for 110,119 and a 500 for 61.5. My HD locals are on 61.5 and I have no LOS for 129. I still want 110 and 119 for SD locals and because I still use my pocket dish.

    129 skew?

    I have an old dish 1000 with a triple yoke for 119,110,129, is that the same as a 1000.4? what I want to do is just use it for 129 only, can I just put a single lnb in the center slot and not worry about the skew? Will a single yoke with no skew be better? I have EA but am not to happy with...

    722 skip back problem.

    I'm not sure if this problem is from the last update or the one before L625, but sometimes if I skip back more than 2 or 3 times the live show will go all the way back to the start. Anybody else having this happen?
