    Receivers compatable in a new install

    As everyone knows by now, my grandpa is going to get dish, what receivers besides the hopper are comparable with a sat that gets installed at this current point in time for new installs with a hopper 2. Would a vip222k or a 211k or a 722k work? Or would it be incompatible

    What receivers are best for this use case

    Yeah I’m not going to be useing them as dvrs as my grandpa dose not want dvr. I just want him to be able to get the most out of them. And if dish dose discontinue guide data for vips I’d replace them with Wally’s or even hoppers

    What receivers are best for this use case

    So as everyone saw my other post my grandpa wants to do dish without paying. He decided he will pay 72.99$ a month for 1 room and all the other roooms will just be receivers without service with ota adapters. But I am wondering which receivers would be good for these rooms. Vip 211k? 211z...

    Dish network sat

    For 1 he dose not want internet, 2 he is useing a Samsung plasma tv from 2005, and 3 he only wants dish network receivers so that would be a hopper duo for recording and the rest of his boxes will either be 211k or 211z

    Which receivers are compatable with the original tailgator

    I belive you, I just want to confirm you know which tailgate I’m talking about correct? It’s the one with the white plastic exterior

    Dish network sat

    No, with dish as long as you have a receiver that supports the ota adapter, it will work with local channles but no dish chs but the sat is required for the receiver to get guide data to tune to the ota chs. If you're wondering why my grandpa insists on this it’s because he is 77 and all he...

    Which receivers are compatable with the original tailgator

    I saw a video on the dish tailgate from 2011 and I found a really good deal on the exact same one in the video on Craigslist and am wondering if it is only comparable with the 211k like they said in the video or is it now comparable with the 211z and Wally?

    Dish network sat

    Is there anyone who would aim a sat for free? My grandpa wants dish network without paying monthly, so in order to get the box to do ota it needs a sat but I don’t know how to aim the sat, is there a company that will aim the dish for free or for under 100$ in the Shreveport la area? Or a...

    Dish Sat Setup

    ok I've came up with a temp solution. Since my TV apps are crappy I'm going to buy a hopper 2 -just for the VOD and Netflix and youtube apps. And for tv, I will get sling with something like an apple tv 4k unless I get a harmony remote that's compatible with my mac

    Dish Sat Setup

    forgot to add that it will be mounted onto a piece of wood held down by 2 cinderblocks at the current and new house. also, would dish do pay-as-you-go with these receivers I currently have and also getting?

    Dish Sat Setup

    I'm getting a hopper 2-3 and possibly some joeys and am moving in around 6-12 months. is it easy to set up the sat ? it would be a 1000.2 WA. The reason why I ask is because I asked about a playmaker and people suggested me not to. The only reason I'm kind of scared to do a traditional dish...

    Dish playmaker

    yeah, I just need a cheap sat that's easy to plug up, also will a VIP222k work? I know its a 2 tuner receiver but it should be able to just use one since it isn't a DVR
