Dual tuner Dish DVR

I need some help with Dish. We just bought a Winegard Traveler Dish version for the RV. We want a dual tuner DVR probably the 722k hooked up to it. Called Dish to buy and was told that since we have a hopper at home the 722k cannot be added to our acct, only a 211k which is not a dual tuner or a dvr. Any advice?

  • Get rid of the hopper and use the 722k? How many TV's does the hopper control? If 2 or more can you take that?
    I use the 722k in the rv but I signed up before hopper existed and got 3 units that would control 5 rooms. A 722, 222, 211.
  • I know it's extreme but switch to DirecTv. I also have the Travler dish and I swap my home system into the RV quite easily. It's the wireless Genie system so I don't have to connect to the RV's coax system (Genie uses HDMI). I have four TV's and everyone can watch something different on each one and we can record without restriction.
