Dish program recording

[dtappy3353]

Folks:

We are camping and have power to run our PathwayX2 and VIP211z.

I'm sure this has been already beat to death, however, I Googled info to see how I could record some DISH Network programs. I'm aware that the 211z doesn't record, however, what is the most affordable/simple way to record from the 211z?


There are a few programs DW and I are missing. Maybe I should have invested in the 722. hmmmmmm....


Any suggestions trulyl appreciated.

Walmart, Bestbuy. Some have a separate power supply..

I got one that didn’t.

You can not record and watch a different channel.

Having the pause and FF are worth it to me.

I don’t think the Pathway works with 722.

I believe the 211Z is only compatible with USB-2 drives. Order it from Amazon - but check the receiver manual first.

You can add a 1T external hard drive to the 211z and pay Dish a one time activation fee and record up to something like 100 hours of programming.
