Connect antenna to Joey Instead of Hopper

[tobsandmags]

Can I connect my OTA antenna to my Joey instead of my Hopper (it’s upstairs where the reception is better)? If I can, will the Hopper see the local channels on its EPG or will it be limited to just that Joey?

No. All tuning, Sat or OTA is performed by the Hopper, not the Joey.

Thanks for the info. Does the Hopper interface with the new AirTV box?

No, the AirTV is a totally separate box...no connection to the main Dish satellite service or receivers.

Try the old method of running an antenna cable from 2nd floor to first.

Would love to hear your explanation of the Old Method. Outside and down the wall?
