    Dish now charges $10 for tech visit to replace broken components?

    About six months ago my two Hoppers were upgraded to Hopper 3's using the DHP42 switch. There is now a problem with the switch where there is no longer signal on the 72.7 satellite. Dish is coming out to replace the switch but wants to charge a $10 tech visit fee. Is this something new? I...

    Moved to Western ARC now DC locals in HD are gone

    In order to fix my signal issues with all of the channels recently moved to 61.5, Dish came out today and switched me to Western ARC. After this was done, all of my Washington DC HD locals were gone. This was not a surprise since I knew the HD channels for DC are only on 61.5. However, the...

    75 minute arrival window: NOT!

    Dish needs to stop claiming they give a 75 minute arrival window. They may indeed start off with that. But their techs routinely change the arrival time several times after their original promise in the morning. After they do this, you end up with about a six hour window. This is the third...

    Am I the only customer running U210

    For months now I have heard of customers running U213 and now U221. Yet, both of my HWS are still running U210. Is anyone else still on version U210?

    What is the new HopperGO Playlist feature?

    This was posted on the DISH Anywhere site last week. Any idea what it is? This will be the last TV Premieres and Specials article, but never fear! Next week sees the premiere of our new HopperGO Playlist feature -- for both HopperGO and plain old DVR folks -- which will list all the great new...

    HWS keeps copying recording to other HWS

    I realize the Carbon UI is beta on the HWS. However, some bozo in my house used the new copy recording from other Hopper option that is added with the Carbon UI. Now that Hopper seems to be forever moving the recordings from the other Hopper and I see no way stop it. Its been over a week now...

    Attention DIRT: I really need help

    I have been a loyal Dish Network customer for 15 years. Four years ago I moved into a new house and through DishMovers my new dishes were installed and pointed at 61.5, 72 and 77. My signal level to 61.5 has always been low. But it has never really caused a problem except during heavy...

    AutoHop works on events recorded before PTAT was enabled

    I'm not sure if anyone cares about this, but it appears that AutoHop functions on events even if those events were not recorded by PTAT. I am about two weeks behind on watching shows. Last night I enabled PTAT on two networks for Friday only. Once this was done, suddenly all of my previously...

    How to delete a DishOnDemand that was interrupted by reboot

    Hello, I was downloading a DishOnDemand movie. In the middle of the download the Hopper rebooted. Now I cannot resume the download, delete the movie or restart the download. Anyone have an idea? I already called support and this is the wonderful answer I got after only a 1 minute chat...

    Dishonline shows EHD content on 722 but not on new Hopper

    Before upgrading to the new Hopper, I was able to search and view contenet stored on my EHD through Dishonline. With the Hopper, I do not see any of it. Is anyone else having this issue?

    PTAT Bugs, Problems, Dislikes ...

    Anyone else not able to disable PTAT. When I go to Menu->Settings->DVR Defaults->PTAT and select disable and then save, I don't get any errors. But when I re-enter that screen, its shows enabled again.

    Guide data no longer tags events with premier

    After about 5-6 hours my new Hoppers are up and running. They are pretty stable and fast. My only complaint is that the guide info no longer includes the word premier or series premier. Under the old receivers this was nice because you could set timers for new movies or new shows. This...

    Maybe no Hopper today. I need another dish?

    The very courteous installer just left. He said in order to have a two Hopper, two Joey setup, I will need another dish because he doesn't have a Duo Node. He says if he finds one, he will return. I have my fingers crossed. :)

    The Wire in HD for first minute and then SD for the rest?

    I have noticed that The Wire this season is in HD for the first 60 seconds while they are showing "Previously on The Wire" but when the actual show starts it switches to SD. Why the heck would HBO do this?

    Why did the CSR tell me the 722 is inferior to the 622?

    My HDMI port broke on my leased 622 back in May. I waited to have the system replaced until now because of the USB storage feature and of course want to move my recordings to the replacment system by using that feature. I asked the rep about the possibility of replacing my 622 with the new 722...

    New 622, can I swap the harddrive from the old?

    My HDMI output failed on my VIP622 and Dish has sent me another. Can I swap the hard drive to move my recorded content to my new receiver? (Funny, my HDMI on my VIP211 also failed just two days later).

    622 Sd Ota?

    Will the 622 eventually offer SD OTA like the 942 does now? The 942 didn't initially offer that feature either.
