Because Hopper 3's cost an additional fee for the vast majority of new subs.
And a single HWS with a Joey would cost less than an H3 with a Joey. You are paying a premium for that second HWS.
I won't pretend to know much about pricing, but I think they're the same. There's a reason why, I'd think, whenever I modify a work order from say a hopper/Sling, Super Joey, 2 Joeys to a Hopper 3 with 3 Joeys, it lowers the price by $3.00 a month, according to the disclaimers the CSR reads the customer
The Hopper 1, 2 and 3 are the same price monthly and the Super Joey is $10 a month as opposed to $7 for regular Joeys.
I assume it's 10.00 for a Super Joey because it adds two tuners?
Other than the obvious - 4K. What is the difference between 4K Joey and a Joey 3.0? If they are the same price why not just get a 4K Joey? Maybe a larger down payment?

First, if you want to have a 4K Joey you have to buy it for $50, not so with the Joey 3.
As I'm sure you already know you don't actually buy it, it still belongs to DISH. They just charge a $50 'upgrade fee' for it.
Well yeah, you have to pay $50 for owned 4K Joey. Kind of like I paid $100 for their owned 722 way back when....As I'm sure you already know you don't actually buy it, it still belongs to DISH. They just charge a $50 'upgrade fee' for it.
ok, so the way to have 2 hopper 3's is to outright purchase the 2nd one... what if someone currently has a HWS and a regular hopper but wants a hopper 3 to replace just ONE of the other receivers. is it possible yet to have a hopper 3 connected with a HWS or regular hopper?
now that it is over a year later since i asked this question, is it now possible to have a hopper 3 and a hws or regular hopper together on the same account? the wife and I prefer two recievers with dvr's in case one of them goes bad, then we'll still have one we can use in the meantime.
You can have two Hopper 3's on the same account and Hopper 3's are the same price monthly as Hopper 1's and Hoppers 2's. The only thing is that you have to purchase the second Hopper 3.
Dish will provide you with two Hopper 1's or two Hopper 2's but not two Hopper 3's.
You should always contact your LOCAL Dish retailer if you have a good one.
With two Hopper 3's on one account can you actually record 32 programs at the same time?
With PTAT turned on and two OTA adapters, you can record 42 programs at the same time with two Hopper 3s on one account.
Good luck trying to find 42 programs worth recording but you can record that many.
