What's the upfront cost per joey? One H3 and 4 joeys will be good for me to start. Other 2 TVs don't get used much. Will weigh that against the monthly $7 joey fee.

What is Plan A customers

Excellent Credit

Plus never being late paying a bill. And paying for a larger programming package, and maybe the protection plan. And making few calls to Dish. Plus a dash of legerdemain. And your luck with a complex formula involving phases of the moons of Jupiter and Charlie's wallet.

Without a release of a new Joey, it's safe to bet the old ones still work so $7

I want to see wiring diagrams. Currently have 2- 722Ks and a 211K (that I use in RV in summer). All running off DPP 44 switch. I would go with Hopper 3 & Joey but must have 211K on account also. Don't know if 211K will work with new LNBF/switches IF they are required....

You would need a second dish for the 211. When the Hoppe 3 is hooked up to the Hybrid LNB the Hybrid LNB goes into dp Z mode instead of dp X mode which the other older equipment used.

I have 722s now. So I'll need new joeys. Any upfront cost, besides the $7 monthly fee?

So will we be able to distinguish those 16 colors on the guide to know which tuner are recording which programs? Could it possibly matter?

Good question

I missed it somewhere but what is the GO ?

Good Point...why would it matter?

Its an external device that you can use with Hopper Transfers to take recordings with you and not have to save them to your phone/tablet storage. It also has built-in WiFI hotspot for up to 5 users so you can stream to your devices w/o using wireless data.

It's a mobile "DVR" that you can watch programming from at a hotel or somewhere similar.

It is like a local server on the go serving up to 5 connections. I wonder how fast it does it?

Is the Hopper 3 still going to have the Media Server? Can't live without that

Yup.

Buy one. $39. Works fine with the Hopper 3.

At least the external OTA tuner still works with the H3, according to Scott.
