So I just switched my 722k and 722 out for the Hopper. The CSR told me that the ota tuner would be at least a dual tuner...not true. So, is it possible to install more than one ota tuner?

By the way..the Hopper is giving me a much better picture than the 722 or the 722k did. The locals still look bad coming from, the sat...that's why I liked to record from the ota tuner.

You can only add one OTA module to one Hopper.. If you have two Hoppers, you can add 2 OTA tuners....

Lesson being here is to work with DIRT as much as possible and avoid the standard CSRs if possible. Bobby is 100% correct here.

OP: I feel your pain. I really would have preferred two OTA tuners like the 722/K's/922. There are quite a few good shows on the OTA's now such as those on MeTV, This, Antenna, Megahertz World just to name a few.
