    New Hopper 3 today will I get 54 remote?

    I was able to keep my old remotes. The tech was excellent. He was a young man who was very polite and professional. I am now setting up my timers using the voice option. Very handy. My wife has already decided she wants to stay with the 40 remote. It is nice to be able to use both. And the...

    Yes, I am getting the 54! And I had a week to transfer my recordings, thank goodness.

    New Hopper 3 today will I get 54 remote?

    Well, my tech is supposed to be here between 7:45 and 9 am. I am in waiting mode. Should I expect to get the newest 54 remotes with the new Hopper 3 and 2 joeys? And I assume there is only one model of Hopper 3, and it is 4k. All my research indicates that. Anything else I should be aware...

    I just looked it up on Amazon. $129. I put it on my wish list. Thanks for the tip, ChadT.

    Hopper 3 Remote is Awful

    It looked like a take off of the original Rudolph TV show. But Abominable wasn't in the commercial. Too bad, xfoneguy!

    Hopper 3 Remote is Awful

    If the voice feature works well, that will be a great tool. I want to tell the remote WHEN to listen, unlike Alexa, which listens all of the time. I just watched the Dish Christmas commercial where the snowman uses the Echo Dot to search for shows since he can't type with his stick arms, and...

    Hopper with Sling sloooowww

    Well, I just finished up with Dish. I am upgrading to the Hopper 3 with 2 Joeys. I ended up with a great american agent who was wonderful to work with. If all goes as planned, I will be very happy!

    Hopper with Sling sloooowww

    I'm on the phone with Dish right now, and they are trying to tell me that if they send me another hopper with sling it will work just fine, as it wasn't downloaded but installed directly on the hopper. What a crock!

    Hopper 3 Remote is Awful

    I will be upgrading to the Hopper 3 and 2 joeys. When the installer comes, will he ask for my 40.0 remotes? If so, can I just tell him I want to keep all 3 of them? I can operate them blindfolded.

    Hopper with Sling sloooowww

    Yes, the new equipment would be nice. I did call about a year ago and received a great 6 month discount from them. Now the price is back up to 175 for the same package you have.

    Hopper with Sling sloooowww

    And It was a mistake for Dish to force the update on us. I have many friends who are upset about it. One switched to Direct, and is very happy with the PQ and the price. Another went with our local cable company and dropped Dish.

    Hopper with Sling sloooowww

    HipKat- You bring back great memories of sitting in the engine compartment of my 283 Chevy Impala and changing the fuel pump at the side of the highway! And yes, I would keep Dish if it worked better. We have been happy with Dish. I live in a rural community, and we only have one cable...

    Hopper with Sling sloooowww

    This doggone new software update to my Hopper is really annoying. The menu is very slow, and connecting to the Hopper in the kitchen to play DVR recordings takes 20 seconds before it will play. The joey in the bedroom is now about worthless. I'm out of contract and am not in the mood to get...

    Hopper 3 terrible HD picture

    I have also just read this entire thread. Glabrecque, what is the status of your PQ now? I must know. I feel as if I have read a novel and the last page is missing!

    Add Hopper

    Excellent info. All my runs are new, as I helped the Dish installer run the cables. He had injured his knee a few days earlier, but still kept the appointment. Dish is pole mount outside my living room, and sling Hopper. I didn't realize Dish made weekend appointments. That would be great...

    Add Hopper

    Hi. I've been a member of this forum for 2 years now, and have learned a lot. I will be out of contract with Dish in a few weeks. I have one hopper sling and 2 joeys. I want to replace the Joey in the kitchen with a Hopper. Tired of the lag in the joey, and the extra space and turners will...
