Hopper and Bluetooth

[trido]

I messed up I now wished I had hopper installed in master bed so wife can use Bluetooth headphones and I not have to listen.
I see of course joey have no Blue tooth am I correct hopper as far as coax from outside run to them is wired dif than joeys and super joey.Meaning no I can't swap hopper location with joey or super joey?

You can use wireless headphones that aren't Bluetooth. I have RCA WHP141 that plug into the left and right audio jacks.

To answer your question, correct you cannot swap locations without reconfiguring the wiring.

I'm sure we'll see some sort of blue-tooth adapter so that you can use it on the Joeys.

A Bluetooth adapter already exists that will work with a Joey. Just Google on "Bluetooth audio transmitter". Most come equipped with a 3.5mm stereo plug, but RCA to 3.5mm adapter cables are readily available.

I'm aware of that, but I'm sure we'll see on as an accessory down the road.

Will having a Dish logo on one make it work better?

Well, hopefully it isn't an adapter like the one you are talking about. Hopefully it's something smaller and easier to use.

"Smaller and easier to use" than this one on Amazon?

A USB Bluetooth adapter for the joeys is in the works.

Any idea when it will be available?

No, I can't get an update no matter how many times I ask. Closest I can get is "coming soon, stay posted".

I asked earlier when it might be available. The reason why is that I was about to pull the trigger and swap one of my Hoppers for the SJ. The blue tooth feature is something I really like, so I'll wait until it's released.
