H3 Questions

[Deadlocked]

Sorry if this info is posted anywhere else!

1. How much to outright buy the H3 and (I assume) 2 joeys?

2. If you outright buy them do you still have to pay the monthly fees? If so which ones and how much?

3. With a three TV household I would only need 2 joeys correct since the H3 would be connected to the third.

Right now I have a 622 and 211 which I believe is $14 total last I checked.

I think you would have to check with a retailer (rather than Dish itself) - one of the largest mail order companies is selling the H3 for around $245 - not sure about the Joeys.

and you very definitely would be paying all the same (monthly) fees to Dish. I believe the H3 is $15 a month and the Joeys are $7 each.

Well if I still have to pay the fees then I don't see the benefit of buying it outright. So that answers the first two.

Yes for 3 TVs you would need 1 Hopper 3 & 2 Joeys, as the Hopper would be attached to 1 TV, the fees would be $29.month ($15 Hopper & 2 x $7 for the Joeys). The "benefits" to buying the equipment outright would be no additional 2 year contract and you could do a self install if you wanted.

The only benefit (as I understand it) is that you wouldnt automatically extend your contract another 2 years - I'm considering these same issues myself.

I don't mind extending the contract and I'm not tech enough to install a dish setup xD

Just show him where it is and he will take care of everything. He is actually going to take the node out and replace it with a hybrid hub....

Non of that will matter, he will change out that node with a Hub, and Hybrid LNB.
