I have a few questions about the new Hopper.

1) If the Hopper has 3 tuners how do you get 4 room system?

2) Do you lose rooms while recordings are happening? If so can you control which rooms you lose to recordings?

1) each room can choose any of the tuners or watch from the DVR.

2) You lose choices: fewer tuners to chose from, that's all.

(Moving the thread to the Hoper Zone.)

If you want live programming to more than 3 TV locations, you can also go to 2 Hopper system (and whatever joeys you need). Then all TV locations can be on independent channels.

Might help with recording conflicts to go with a second hopper since it adds 3 more tuners. All depends on the needs of your household.
 
Thank you for the information. I have to wait another year until I can come back to Dish. Since I wasn't working I went to D* to save money. I was happy at first and thought I made a good move but the more I'm with D* the more I miss E*
