    HwS never finds Tuner 3 on 1K.2

    I have a Hopper with Sling (no Joeys) and a 1000.2 on WA that I've set up but it never seems to be happy with the third tuner. I have a solo node with one coax running from the port labeled 1 on the LNB to dp plus 1 on the solo node and another coax running from the port labeled 2 on the LNB to...

    Hopper 3 with dish 500 for temporary fix?

    After many faithful years of service, my 622 is finally biting the dust. I'm a DIYer and mostly used it for locals and recording ample SD shows for my kids, so it just has a dish 500 with a DPP LNB pointed to 119 and 110, and I get most of my HD programming off of a Roku. Since the 622 is...

    Anyone Ghosting their External Drive?

    I've got a 622 with an external drive and they're both getting full. A lot of the stuff is shows you can't get on DVD, so I just want them archived to watch later. I thought about getting another large EHD, but then had a thought. Can't I get another, smaller, cheaper EHD, copy some shows from...
