To meet your needs, I suggest you do as Harley Dave suggested... use the Dish 612 receiver, or similar, if you need to pull in more than one channel at the same time.
I highly suggest that you simply add whatever receiver you buy to your home account as a second receiver..... it only costs $7. per month additional.
When you have a Hopper, I don't believe you can add a 612 receiver even if you buy it. I think you can only add a 211 or a Wally.
Regardless, even if you could add a dual-tuner receiver like a 612, what are you going to connect it to? The Pathway X2 or Tailgater won't play well with a dual-tuner receiver, so you would need an open-faced tripod dish like the 1000.2 or the rooftop Winegard Travler.
In this case, it might be better to just take your Hopper.
