thanks all. appreciate it. And yes, our guide is fully populated, thank goodness. Im sure its frustrating not having it. Thats one of the reasons I left my internet providers cable tv option. I was paying about as much as DISH monthly, but no guide and no DVR (I would have had to pay even more)
AirGap a Pretty good deal for $30.
The last part is to figure out what antenna I need to hook to it. I'm about 35 miles south of the broadcasting antennas. It sucks that ABC has been removed from DISH.
I bought the antenna linked below. I installed it indoors, just sitting on top of my armoire. Works great. Picks up channels 36miles from my house.

In Indianapolis, here’s what I get:
Hopper - 4, 6, 8, 13, 20, 23, 29, 40, 46, 47, 59, 69
