I didn't find a forum for new members and if I overlooked it I apologize. I've had the Dish Hopper since Friday week ago and I immediately knew I would need an online resource to help me. The Hopper television commercial is my favorite and since Comcast would not negotiate a new monthly rate with me (after doing so for the last two years), I dumped cable for Dish. I had Dish many years ago (right after the first bird went up in 1996), but there's been a lot of technological improvements since then. I'll be lurking about looking for answers but I do appreciate the support that I know this site provides.
