Getting ready to upgrade but I cant make up my mind, I read the thread about the joeys being slow, are the super joeys worth the extra? Are they faster, I know you have one extra tuner? They are 3 more dollars a month which is the part i dont like. Whats your opinin for those of you who have experienced both? Thanks, George
Upgrading, should i get a joey or super joey?

Ya I know, and i keep thinking that. What i dont want is a slow slugish reciever. I do like my fast reaction time, searching!
The Hopper won't be slow, The Joeys are slow.
From what I'm hearing the Super Joeys are much better.
And I've also seen my first Wireless Joey in action and it's better then both of my regular joeys.
But it's wireless, and not sure how reliable it's the connection will be .
Also keep in mind you can only have 1 super Joey.

If you value speed, the Super Joey is ABSOLUTELY worth the extra $$$. The extra tuners would just be gravy.
If you're willing to pay the extra cost for a Super Joey, it will be faster. It has a faster CPU (and more RAM, I think) than regular Joeys.
I do like the speed for sure, but im retired on a fixed income, so i dont like the 3 extra dollars......Thank you all!!!!
Buy one less cup of coffee out for a month and you've paid for it. I am also retired on a fixed income. I prioritize things. I am not overjoyed that, again, we will not see a SS increase next year...
I'm on the retirement train as well, however when the military raises their pay, mine goes up as well. Fingers crossed.
As far as the SJ goes, very rarely will anyone on this board tell you to get a Joey over a Super Joey. You just get far to much value out of a super Joey, for a small difference in price. In some states, the taxes are more than the difference.

I love the Super Joey!! So glad I got one over the Joey . I think it's just as quick as my HWS. Yeah it's 3.00 more but totally worth it.
What country's military did you retire from? Retirees from the U.S. military only receive CPI raises, their pay does not go up with increases in active duty pay. It's been that way since way back in the 1950's.
