    Are there any differences between the 54.0 and the 54.1 remotes? (Other than the logo on the bottom of 54.1)

    How do lots of people get free remote offers? Been a dish customer for 20 years with a big package and they never offer me a free remote. Who do I pester to get a free 54.0 or 54.2 or 54.3?

    Any point in buying a Joey 4K?

    I see Joey 4ks on EBAY for approx $90. I pay 7 dollars a month rental for my current Joey 4K. Will I still be charged a rental feel even if I own the Joey? My guess knowing Dish is that they have us coming and going. But I am curious if I buy a Joey 4K outright and hook it up myself will...

    Is Dish offering free Hoppe 3 upgrades

    Well I thought I might have gotten misinformation. Ends up a push, either the service plan or pay for the service call. Same price either way. The tech ran into some minor problems with getting my programming mostly due to MLB extra innings and ended up being her for two hours. Charlie...

    Is Dish offering free Hoppe 3 upgrades

    I just did a Hopper3 and Joey 4k upgrade. Did an on line chat and was offer a bad deal initially. Told them that was not good enough and I had been a DISH customer for more than 10 years, etc. etc. and they needed to do better. Got them down to free upgrade including service call, but needed...

    Any reason to go with Joey 2.0 rather than the 4k Joey?

    Waiting on DISH. The third update on tech arrival came a while back. Started out with a 12-5 window, then a 12:30-2:00, then a 1-1:45, then a 1:45-3:00. Trying to end up with a Hopper 3 and a 4k Joey. No upgrade fees but a additional two year commitment. Service call fee unless I signed up...

    Any reason to go with Joey 2.0 rather than the 4k Joey?

    I am convinced. 4K Joey. is what I will get. Now if the online chat was working on the DISH site I would take care of this now.

    Any reason to go with Joey 2.0 rather than the 4k Joey?

    How about Super Joey? Throw that into the mix does anything change?

    Any reason to go with Joey 2.0 rather than the 4k Joey?

    Title says it all. We don't have a 4k TV yet but it is coming for the bedroom unit. But maybe not for a year. Any downside to the 4k over the Joey 2.0? Speed would be nice, so why not get the 4K and avoid the rush later.

    New Dual Tuner OTA Adapter

    I did a software update this morning. Thought that fixed things, but I have no access to the dual tuner, only able to tune in to one OTA channel. Went to the diagnostic screen and it says I have Software Version U234 6/14/2017, 6:35AM. Apparently Even though I did a software update, I did...

    New Dual Tuner OTA Adapter

    When in doubt do the same thing over and over again. I went and did another software update. Then I scanned channels again and they are now on the guide and working. Like all things electronic, there is a bit of magic involved. Either that or a pact with the devil.

    DISH Anywhere

    The only problem is that I am a Red Sox fan and MLB TV does not have them on for every game. There has to be a way as I have a friend who has no problems watching the Red Sox on his phone.

    New Dual Tuner OTA Adapter

    I just installed the new dual tuner on a Hopper with Sling. The receiver recognizes it, and I go to a scan of OTA channels, and get the dreaded message of no channels found. I have whatever the latest software is as of a couple days ago, but no channels are being recognized to populate the...

    Hopper 3 Joey 2.0 Upgrade

    I looked to update my software this morning. I have version 234 for the Hopper with Sling. The on screed message says that I have the most recent version. Guess the new software is not out yet for the Hopper with sling.

    Hopper 3 Joey 2.0 Upgrade

    We currently have a Hopper with Sling and a Joey. We run into lots of conflicts with recording and watching so the idea of 16 channels sounds great. Also the prospect of 2 OTA tuners is mighty appealing. Did a chat with Dish today and they said they would waive any one time lease fees, and...

    DISH IS VERY DISHONEST

    so thats it? two comments about his writing style, and one telling him what he now knows, no national networks available. I believe that DISH told him everything he says they did. They do try to take advatage either by design or by benign neglect in training there phone staff. He...

    OTA local scan

    Just to make things clear....... I know how to run the receiver to get the channels into the memory. There is nothing I am doing that is wrong. Still stumped as to why I get more channels found than get saved. Even when it says 6 channels found and I "SAVE" them all I only get 4.

    OTA local scan

    I get 2 versions of PBS, both of which show up on the guide and two other channels both of which show up on the guide, and all 4 come it with a strong signal. In fact the HD PBS is the best HD picture I get and I have Dish and Direct. So 6 channels now show up as found, but i only can tune...

    OTA local scan

    the same 4 old channels show up in the boxes. I choose the Select All Button. What I don't get is some other two channels that it seems to be reading when it says Channels Found 6. Rabbit ears only list 4 within 80 miles but 6 within 100 miles. I get the 4. There is not a chance of...
