Every Bluetooth product I have bought has a blue flashing LED on it.

Nah. You just need a two digit red LED counter on the front of the H3 to display the number of recordings in progress.
If we are going to get crazy (and clearly we are), then how about an OLED display. The user could chose the color scheme he/she want (hopefully one of them is all back, background and foreground), and it could indicate how many recordings are in process, how many are expected to start in the next ten minutes, how many Joeys are viewing right now, and if a Sling connection is in use.
How did a thread about reinstating the DIRT team on this site get hijacked to be a led light discussion?
Scott Greczkowski Any updates about the DIRT team here?

LOL. This is on topic compared on how far some other threads get off topic.
I have two, and the display is absolutely used by me and I wish ALL DVR's had something like this. The info is priceless when the TV is off and I notice a recording in progress. At times it is recording I already have or have seen (I need to have 6 seperate timers for one show--becaue it can get interrupted by live news, so I have subsequent repeats airing set to record) or to confirm that a particualr show is, indeed recording. Dish DVR's have missed recording or record the same episode needlessly, etc., but at least with the TiVo Series 3, I have not missed a recording--if I am at home to see the display, but even that makes a big difference. Also, stupid H3 won't record even if I command it for a program in progress that was tuned to after the show started--and the H3 has the nerver to state that "Recording already . . ." when, in fact, NO RECORDING IS TAKING PLACE. PITA.
Just an update.
Things are still being worked on, lots of emails have been going back and forth. The folks that are there now did not know how DIRT use to operate so they are learning now. They had some concerns which were valid, but I offered them very simple solutions which they can work with.
I am working hard on this for you guys and the only thing I get out of it is being able to give you better DISH support, like you were use to before they dismantled DIRT as we knew it.
I will keep fighting for this, you have my word on it.
Stay tuned!

Caleb recently did a great job that Dish chat couldn't figure out. I hope he is one of the team members.

My router turns itself upside down and walks around the house at night while we're all sleeping
I wish they would quit over designing these things and go back to the rectangular box with removable antennas.
It’s sad you can’t even buy a router today without wireless
Why not just put a small LCD display with a number of tuners in use.
But then again too many lights on these boxes as it is.
You do that and people are gonna bitch that the number on the front of the receiver is not the channel that they are on!
I wonder if an app, maybe with the hub, would tell you “recording on XYZ network is now in progress.” Might be a good idea, since the nice simple recording in progress light is going away.

How would that be different than just looking at the TV Activity screen?
that still sounds like extra steps.
Nothing can beat just glancing the direction of the DVR and if you see the red led you know something (doesn't matter what) is recording.
Speaking of threads, is cotton thread better than nylon?
