How many tuners?

How many times does this need to be asked? Seriously, look right above your post.

Thanks - but that was not visible when I posted. SERIOUSLY

How many OTA tuners?

How many OTA tuners?

Same answer as above. Actually, it could be less than that, depending on which dongle you add.

Hi HipKat,

Would you be able to post a picture of it? Also, is there a product/feature/spec sheet for it on the tech portal yet, beyond what you've posted already?

I copied that off the Tech portal. Right now only Dish administrators can see the page that was On and somebody copied pasted it to the general forum so everybody can see it. As soon as I can get a hold of those things I will post them here

So I didn’t see it say anywhere if it was or was not Sling enabled.

It is not

I get it has two tuners but do they work like a hopper on locals where the one tuner has all 4 locals. With my hopper I can be watching ABC, Recording CBS, and someone viewing NBC on a joey and still just be using 1 tuner even though I have PTAT turned off. I assume the Duo does not do PTAT because of limited HD space. So I ask if you are watching ABC on the hopper and recording NBC is one or two tuners in use?

The Duo does not include PTAT so I am assuming that it doesn’t do 4 channels on one tuner...

If you don't want to answer, then don't answer. You don't have to be an a$$wipe.

I think he was joking, hence the emoji.

 

[pattykay]

Also, two was the correct answer, assuming that Hopper Duo does not do PTAT (multiple locals on one tuner) functionality.

No specs yet but here's a picture of the Hopper Duo.
