    Pressing the rewind button jumps waaaaaaaayy back

    Hello Hopper 3, with wired joeys 2, and 52.0 remote. The joey has software version J272. As I watch a program from OTA channels or satellite channels, pressing the back rewind button EVER SO SLIGHTLY, jumps way back to the beginning of when I tuned to that channel; it's as if I held it down...

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    The Dish subcontractor came this morning with a very dumbfounded look. Thankfully, he has had other service calls for ota issues, so he wasn't totally clueless. He played with the settings, by scanning the locals, which was unnecessary. He moved the dongle to the usb 3.0 port, and no locals...

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    Excellent suggestions. I have a contact at Dish CS that I'm hoping will get me a new dongle. Maybe.

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    My dongle cant get software updates, I think, unless it's done through the hopper and then via usb. What model is the latest one?

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    Thank you It is not powered and looks like this. I will ask dish to come check it out, but i doubt that they'll come out for ota issues since they don't really support that. Getting to ot myself is tricky since it sits at the highest peak of my 2 story house.

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    Good point. I'll try to get Dish to dix it, though they don't support OTA much, if any. Good theory, but when it's happened, I haven't been recording a sat channel. And the error message clearly states that I the signal to channel 006 has been lost.

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    Thanks Bobby It is a roof-mounted antenna that points in the direction of our locals, obviously. It has worked fine for many years, but as of late, it frustrates. On windy days, I assume that it moves up there at the highest point of our two-story house, and thus the signal fails. Perhaps??

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    Hello My hopper 3 has the usb OTA dongle connected to the usb 2.0 port and I'm using the dish-supplied ota antenna. As of 2 weeks or so, while watching my local channels, i constantly get the black screen of "the ota signal has been lost for channel...", the image pixelates, and the signal...

    Software version H368 for Hopper 3

    Hello D How do you manually update receivers? I should know this after having Dish for 15+ years. My joeys still have version J267, which sounds older than J568, no? THanks

    Forced guide update?

    Forced guide update?

    Hey I tried this, but I see that the guide is wrong for one OTA channel. It's my local NBC channel, and it displays the program guide for Telemundo, a sister company.

    Forced guide update?

    thanks Hip That has to be done on the Hopper, right? Not a Joey

    Forced guide update?

    Hi Joseph or Josephine How did you force a guide update? My OTA local channel guide is out of wack, and I'd like to fix it.

    20 year Dish Customer

    RickIrrgang I stumbled onto your post, and you have me intrigued. Being in our 50's, we're used to turning on the TV and watching what is "sent to us". Sure, we've dabbled in on-demand stuff on Netflix and Amazon, but we still like the idea of turning on the TV, and if "The Office" is on...

    Joey2 turns on to the same channel every day

    Hello all I have a Hopper 3 with 2 Joey2's in the house, and one Joey2 has acted weird for some time. Regardless of what we watch the night before, whenever it gets turned on, it tunes to the same channel, 117 (which is usually showing ER in the mornings...). Every night we usually watch a local...

    I want my hockey games and an alternative to FSN Florida

    Hello frustrated Sports Fans I'm obviously aware of The Dispute between Douche and Sinclear, and I'll spare us all of another thread of ranting. I am simply wondering about alternative ways to see FSN Florida. Hulu and you tube tv want $49 a month. While I definitely want to watch the games...

    Pixelated image on tvs fed by Joeys

    An update I was getting a pixelated image on a non-ota channel. As soon as I unplugged the ota adapter, the pixelation disappeared. I guess Dish may not care, based on HipKat 's last reply, but I hope that it gets addressed.

    Pixelated image on tvs fed by Joeys

    Thank you. Yes, I've seen other posts about this, and I hope that Dish can address it somehow. It would be good to know if the other cases involve a powered OTA antenna. I have a gigantic 1980s antenna in the attic that I will connect at some point; however, using it requires the OTA dongle...

    what hub? My joeys aren't wireless, and yes, they replaced the Hopper.
