    Hopper 3 with sling already bit the dust installed 11-13

    I know, right? Was almost afraid to say it! Moved from rural to small town in 2016, changed my 722 & 622 for a Hopper 3/Joey. Never any problems. And would never go back to 2 tuners...

    Me too; installed spring 2016, never a problem.

    OTA has bit the Dust

    I do it to listen to spotify & other stuff...

    Potential New Roof and moving my Dish and Antenna

    In my case, the coax is buried about a foot & a half to the house wall, then up the wall and along the siding. Its out of the way, no foot traffic nearby.

    Potential New Roof and moving my Dish and Antenna

    Can't speak to the cost, but, having had both roof mount and now pole mount, I'd take a pole mount anytime. Easy to clean off snow (if needed) and easy to work on.

    New display showing up

    Interesting seeing this on cable. Like others, I have it on my H3; I've seen it during live TV at random times.

    Signal Protector

    Because in general, I do my viewing by Dish & the DVR (not streaming for various reasons). This is just a nice-to-have backup to streaming in the rare instances of weather-related lost signals while watching live Dish.

    Its TEAM SUMMIT week!

    Wow, haven't thought about the peek & poke commands since using my Apple II+ back in the mid-80s. Thanks for the memory.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    Very funny/sad. I'm not young, but in 2024 I just cannot imagine calling some company to pay my bill.

    Hopper Software Upgrade H274 5/4/204 Lost 'Showtimes' on the Info Screen

    Remote Control settings did it; when you think you've looked everywhere... Thanks again.

    Hopper Software Upgrade H274 5/4/204 Lost 'Showtimes' on the Info Screen

    Noticed the "Last 6 channels missing on Recall" immediately! Assumed it was the Update Thanks, looked & looked for a setting! I'll give that a shot.

    Newest H3 software.

    Suprised anyone with a Hopper doesn't know about auto-hop. It's been there a long time.

    OTA channels are constantly searching for signal

    Can't imagine movement affecting OTA. Given that it has worked fine but has many years of use, I'd suspect a loose or corroded connection up at the antenna.

    Joey 4?

    I just know, watching the disussion, that the Joey 4K shouldn't have been named that... ...but since it was, probably should have used "Joey 5" for the new android/hopper-plus one. I've seen so much confusion caused for folks new to Dish over the similar name.
