What are the chances that all four TVs will be simultaneously viewing different channels?
Or recording. Live tv or recording doesn't matter, how many tuners in use does.
The goal of my question was to pick between two Hoppers and a Hopper/Super Joey configuration. Of course if a new Hopper that supports three clients comes along...
Out of four TVs, the chances should be relatively high that at least one TV is playing a recording.
If seeing if he is a candidate for a SJ you would want to take his recording style into account. It plays just as large a role as live viewing from anyone of the TVs. With how particular you are on things, this is something i figured you wouldn't have left out. Fact is if he really only watches one tv at a time, but records almost everything, the SJ is likely the best bet.
I make it a rule every tv must have an available tuner at all times.
And then Minimum 1 extra for recording.
I would never have more Joeys then I have a live tuner for.
So 4 tvs I wouldn't take anything less than a Hopper and Super Joey.
I don't care if it's only used once a month.
But that's just me.
But I would wait until tonight before making any decisions.
That is for sure.
You are making a big mistake if you dont.

You said nothing about recordings, only live tv watching. Both should be considered in the same question otherwise you are going to confuse people.
DIRT.....i would love to upgrade to the new Hopper 3 when available.......please and thank you
I just watched the Dish CES press conference online -- and they said the Hopper 3 will be available this month. I believe they said it will cost an additional $15 per month. And it DOES have 16 tuners.
Would a DIRT member please contact me about upgrading my Hopper 2 to a Hopper 3 when available.
Thank you!!
Thank you!!
