    NEWSMAX TV is now in HD now on Dish on channel 216

    Hoping Dish will add OAN (One America News Network) HD or SD. Direct, Fios, and U-Verse (among others) all carry it.

    New Hopper 3 not saving favorites list names- known bug?

    I had a Hopper 3 and two Joey 2's installed on Friday. I've created 3 favorites lists on the Hopper 3 and on one of the Joeys- the channels save, but I cannot get the list names I created to save in both the Hopper and the Joey. Tried a number of times- and they remain labeled List 1, List 2...

    Composite output from Hopper 3

    I'm upgrading to the H3 with 2-3 Joeys on Friday. Currently running a 722 & 622. The 622 is also pushing a HD component signal to a second TV in an adjoining exercise room. This setup works fine since we never watch two different programs because of their proximity and both TV's are never on...

    Powered HDMI splitter from Monoprice?

    Should be no problem- the 720P TV was hooked directly to a 722 before moving the TV. ~$30.00 w/ shipping for a 5 wire 35' component video cable, a couple wall plates, and single gang boxes. Wires are all run in an unfinished portion of my basement- good to go. Thanks everyone for their input!

    Powered HDMI splitter from Monoprice?

    In a couple of the reviews for the Sewell 2 Port 1x2 Powered Hdmi splitter on Amazon.com, the reviewers mentioned video resolution will be at the lowest of your two devices that you will be driving with the splitter. ie, If you are driving a 720P TV and a 1080P TV, you will get 720P on both...

    Sling Adapter and OTA channels?

    Yep- 722. Hopefully a firmware update to resolve this some day "soon....." I'll try that- a small delay, but a workaround- Thanks!

    Sling Adapter and OTA channels?

    Evidently OTA channels don't work through Sling Adapter although they all show remotely on my guide? Just hooked the Sling Adapter up last night- cool technology- so far so good- other than some remote bandwidth issues which aren't the fault of Sling.

    Cheapest way to get FoxNewsHD?

    If you don't have the will power to keep your finger from hitting "enter" when you're on 205, why don't you just lock it out- won't even see it in your program guide unless your unlock with your password. IMO, I'm glad I'm still permitted to watch Fox News - at least they're somewhat...

    A moving mystery

    Fox Sports West is on a conus (continental united states) beam, not a spot beam. The locals he's moved to are on a spot beam which covers a limited geographic area, and he's too far geographically from that spot. Fortunately for you, the spot for the locals you've moved to happens to cover...

    Is is possible to have 2 sets of locals

    Same thing happened to me which is alright since I can still view my hometown locals OTA- minus the programming guide. The "locals" I moved to have much more to offer including a CW station in HD which isn't even offered in my home market. I get the best of both worlds.
