Dish Network "Hopper & Joey" up-grade install ...

[tigerhonaker]

Guys,

For you HT, (Home Theater) guys on AA.

Dish Network tech, (Gary) from Nashville, TN. office came this morning to "Up-Grade" my Dish gear.

Not only did I get the Very Newly Released, Hopper & Joey DVR gear.
I also got the newest satellite dish that just came out.

Guys this is a pretty darn sweet set-up as it is 1st class for sure.
Multiple HD video with it multiple TVs.

Auto recording for {Prime Time Network Local Channels}.

Gary the Tech that is actually an employee of Dish knows his stuff.
This guy just jumped in and did his thing.

The 1st thing he did was change out my old satellite dish for the very latest Dish just came out with.

Then he did the main HT, (Home Theater) install of the Hopper DVR.
This unit has only been out for like weeks.

He completed that install and went to the Master bedroom and set-up the Joey for that TV.

All mess what little there was he cleaned-up.
He checked all the set-up multiple times to make sure everything was working as it was suppose to.
Answered and showed me the New Features on the New Hopper & Joey.
Said his Good-Bye and off he went to his next appointment.

You guys know how I luv to document new gear with Pictures.
These are not going to be great as I did not bring out and set-up all the 2,500 Watt work lamps.
Just set-up one set for Gary to do his install.
So pictures are not going to be as clear and bright as they could be with adequate lighting.
The HT is a Cave with out the Halogen work Lamps.

Below are some of the pictures of Gary doing his install today.

Hi,

Man things are going "Smooth" with the New Dish {Hopper} set-up.

Powered up the HT this afternoon and now everything is loaded.

Including {Blockbuster} for On-Line Streaming.

And VOD, (Video on Demand).

Plus I saw where the "Automatic" Prime Time Anytime recorded last evening.
This new Dish Hopper is the Shit guys.

I tried out the Blockbuster and it works great for {Streaming}.

I have something similar with DirecTv. We can record up to nine programs at one time and watch any of them on any TV including the one w/o a DVR.
