DISH has asked us to find members who would be interested in helping them test some new software coming soon the the DISH Hopper / Hopper with Sling system!

For this test we are looking for people we enjoy being social, and enjoy using sites like SatelliteGuys, Twitter and Facebook. (well we all know you like SatelliteGuys... after all you are here.) :D Those interested in testing must already have a DISH Hopper or Hopper with Sling. If your not into social networking then this test is not for you.

For those who apply over the next few weeks special software will be sent to your Hopper which will let you test this exciting new app. You will also have access to a special Testers Only forum here on SatelliteGuys where you can give DISH your feedback on the app and interface with the app development team!

To apply you must send an email to testisfull@dontemailus.com

Please use the subject Hopper Testing when submitting your email.

The body of this this email it MUST contain the following 3 things (and ONLY the following 3 things!)

Update since I am getting lots of pm's...

You DO need to have a Facebook, twitter or both for this test.

If you are not on Twitter and/or Facebook then this test is not for you.

Thanks for the opportunity but I'll have to sit this one out after all.
 
Me too. Thought I have a Facebook account, I almost never use it and don't really like it. If it weren't for my grandkids, I'd never go there.

Thanks for the opportunity.

Yep, I hear ya. I don't care for it at all. It has been a problem for some folks when they have revealed a little too much!! LOL
 
Email sent, I hope I didn't screw it up lol

I do use facebook and i am soon going to upgrade to a hopper system too so put me in i think it could be a decent fit for this testing.
 
I just joined Satellite guys yesterday after being a long time fan and lurker of the site. I submitted my email tonight and looking forward to participating if chosen.
 
Ok everyone who applied before 11:30 AM ET today now have access to the private forum.

We still have slots open, for those who haven't applied yet!

Also PLEASE HELP US SPREAD THE WORD! If you know other Hopper users who would like to help test this app, please let them know about this thread!
