OTA tuner for Hopper question.

[spacenerd]

First, I have found that the OTA tuner is much better on the Hopper add on tuner than it was on my 722. Many more channels. My question is about programing the channels. It appears that as I rotate my antenna and then save the channels for one location I lose the channels I saved from a previous location. Anyone else experience this. And when I select add local channels I get "this service we be added soon".
Any thoughts, it is annoying to have to reprogram every time I turn my antenna. The system on the 722 saved the channels.
Thanks

Unfortunately, the OTA software for Hopper is still in a relatively crude state compared to the 722. What you are experiencing is just how it is until they release an update to address these issues.

Could you use multiple antennas and tie their feeds together? This assumes no duplicate channel numbers. No rotation needed.

Currently, it'd sm sll ot nothing. As you have experienced, rescanning overwrites the saved settings. They have yet to enable adding individual channels like you could on the 722.

No.

Cable is QAM and antenna is ATSC. The module is only made to pick up digital antenna channels.

Cable uses QAM/NTSC. The OTA tuner is ATSC-only.
