That means it's environmentally friendly. Also, it makes a weird "cha-ching" sound every time you turn it on...Nope green.
I have two HWS's on an Outdoor account, one in our cottage and one in our RV. On the road, each HWS uses its own dish. Obviously, switching to one Hopper is not an acceptable solution. Will the Hopper+ work with one of the Hoppers without using a second one on the second Hopper?
I've got it! The LED uses the same technology as a mood ring. As long as navychop stays really angry, the LED will be red. 
I had to get right up on it it is green.That's because yours has a little less yellow in it!
And during the Christmas holidays it flashes from Red to Green!
Not just during the holidays, but also during software updates.
Also, be sure to look for the orange LED during Halloween!
I finally sat down and did some testing on what appeared to be a problem with the DVR playback on my Wally. When you hit the skip back button it says 10 seconds on the screen but actually it jumps back 20 seconds (I timed it several times). I don't remember having this issue prior to this new software version. Not sure how you can screw up something like that but it is.
Yup; that's exactly what my H3 and J3's do. It wouldn't be so annoying if it wouldn't play for a few seconds and then skip to live again.
That defeats the whole purpose of skipping back 10 seconds because, if you missed something, you never get to hear it again without going back more like a minute and suffering through that minute twice. I have sometimes resorted to turning on CC to see what the dialog was.I'm really really annoyed that Dish has left this spontaneous "skip to live" problem go on for years without addressing it.
This might be a good one to post in the official software issue reporting thread:
DISH Software Update xx24
We have started our roll out for new software. As a quick reminder, these roll outs are done in waves. If your system doesn't have the update feel free to update via the Tools menu with the Upgrade Software option. Updated Software versions: Model Software Version Hopper H124 Hopper...

I'm not sure Dish Technical Operations is following this thread (the one we are in now) anymore, since we have kind of gone off the rails here. That thread (the sticky one I linked above) is more likely to get a response from someone who can actually help.
You can always just ping Charlie from Tech Operations. He's on here and has personally helped me to troubleshoot something in PM's. He's top notch and cares. He might not have seen this thread.This might be a good one to post in the official software issue reporting thread:

So are you having the same issues as others where everything gets stuck in HDR? If so that really surprises me that the HD channels look better with the +. I would think that would make the picture too dark for shows that aren’t actually aired in HDR.
I might just not be seeing it but with this upgrade I can no longer find access to the timers on my Wallys. I've hunted all over the menus and can not find a "Timers" tab or icon. Is it gone or am I dyslexic?
If you go to DVR, you don’t see timers at the top?I might just not be seeing it but with this upgrade I can no longer find access to the timers on my Wallys. I've hunted all over the menus and can not find a "Timers" tab or icon. Is it gone or am I dyslexic?
OK, now that I've had my 2nd cup of coffee I do see that tab but what I was having trouble finding was where to create a timer. When you see the little red dot representing the red button on the remote it appears to indicate sort choices the way it's worded when actually it accesses the menu I was looking for. Not universally user friendly but alls well that ends well.
