I have ordered a Hopper with 3 Joeys. How many USB OTA Adapters do I need to get OTA on all TVs. The tech tells me none but I doubt that is correct.

It is important to understand that the OTA adapter is only going to see one channel at a time and all of your receivers will only see that one channel at a time... So, let's say that you are watching channel 2 off of your antenna on your Hopper, your Joeys will only be able to join that tuner. They will not be able to watch channel 4 off of the antenna.
The OTA adapters do not work by connecting them to a Joey, just to expand on what the others have said. Also, the Hopper will only support/recognize (1) adapter.
You can get the OTA module from Amazon or Ebay if you wish to order one before install.

And knowing DISH that is probably some type of one time charge where they still own it and are leasing it to you with some sort of hidden extra monthly charge.

Uh, no, it is yours to keep....And knowing DISH that is probably some type of one time charge where they still own it and are leasing it to you with some sort of hidden extra monthly charge.
The only thing Dish leases is modems, TRIA's, and receivers. Everything else from the Dish store is for purchase. Dish remotes are $20, and they also are not leased and cheaper than many places as well.And knowing DISH that is probably some type of one time charge where they still own it and are leasing it to you with some sort of hidden extra monthly charge.
