Thanks for the replies. The fact that a non dvr unit has only one tuner, shoots that idea down. Therefore, is there any reason to choose another dvr over a Hopper 3?

Considering going back to Dish from Comcast. When I had Dish, my last receiver was a vip622 which I loved. It is miles better than the Comcast X1 even though it is 10 year old technology. I am intrigued by the thought of a receiver that I could buy and turn into a dvr by adding a external...

And I was just about ready to start researching Tivo. I won't now. My Panasonic TV has banner ads on the App screen. In the menu, you can turn off ads, but not the ones at the top of the App screen. Even though I rarely go to that screen, it irks me so much that I have vowed never to buy...

Cut the Cable... that will get rid of them.

Thanks for the pointers. What do you mean by "free box"?

I have read a number of comments about the speed of the H3 and wonder in practical terms, what the speed is for or does? Does it mean that after 15 years of digital I can finally go back to channel surfing like we used to be able to in the old days?

Thank you all and thanks Ziptied for the screenshot. I have not liked the Comcast X1 at all. The only good thing it has going for it, is the ability to interact with an online guide, which is far superior to the little-bitty on screen guide that the H3 has. To then crowd the guide with an...

Thinking about going back to Dish after 2 years with Comcast. What are the banner ads everyone is mentioning? Can someone take a screenshot and post so I can see? Is there a DVR that doesn't have the ads? I cannot imagine paying a $100 a month for service and then have to deal with ads!

Thanks. I guess that shoots down that idea!

If you buy a Hooper with Sling ($239), to you avoid the $12 a month DVR fee?

How can my kids watch it from their homes?

From Wikipedia: ? While Fox Sports 1 will effectively replace Speed, Fox is required to re-negotiate carriage deals with television providers to carry the new network due to its change in scope. As of July 2013, Fox had not yet reached deals with three of the United States' four largest...

Okay, I see that NASCAR is going to Fox Sports 1 August 17th. So... Now I need a package with Big Ten, Fox Sports Detroit, and Fox Sports 1.

What is happening with Speed? When? Where will Nascar qualifying be shown?

Do either one of these units flip through the channels faster?

I currently have "Dish America". I want to Add in HD the "Big Ten Network", Speed Channel", and Fox Sports Detroit". Looking at the different packages offered, I don't see Fox Sports and I have no idea what "Fox Sports Detroit Plus" is. Is there a Sports Pack that would add these channels...

I have a 622 that I have leased for 7 years. I just got a new TV and am considering if it is time to "upgrade" my DVR. I only have one TV and have no plans to add another. I have two issues with the 622 that drives me nuts and wonder if a new model would rectify. First, the speed at which...

I have several Favorite List that I created but no longer use. I can't find anyway to delete the list. You can clear all the channels from it, but you cannot get rid of the list itself. So everytime they add a channel, the list is back when I hit the guide button. Certainly there has to be a way...

I used to do it all the time when I was only picking up one bird. Is there a cheap meter for doing my own tuning?

I have been with Dish for a dozen years. My signal strength has become weak to the point that when there is a cloud I am not getting some of my channels. The problem is most apparent on 129 where many of my HD and locals are at. I am in Detroit by the way and have a clear LOS. Dish says...

I was watching over the satellite. I love this DVR (well used to) it is well designed and had worked flawlessly.

After watching every Nascar race all year and my guy with a chance to win the championship in the Final Race, my DVR Keeps Freezing. No function works, I have to unplug and re-boot. Of course in the process I see Jimmy Johnson celebrating and so now the race is ruined. I have had to reboot 5...

Not sure, until the Repoint kit is available or some other option, I don't know.

I have finally determined (I hope) that I have a Superdish 121. I would like to add my local HD's which I understand are on 118.75. What will I need to install this? I am upgrading from a 811 to the 211. See picture of LNB Thanks Mr Ranger

If you expand the images (not referring to the thumbnails) you can get a better idea as to the size and scope. All together here I count 7 trees that were topped. The White Pines in the photo are about 80 foot tall and the diameter is 34-36 inches. In the bottom left corner of one of the...
