OTA Adapter

[StarScan]

I've been thinking about adding the digital OTA adapter to my setup. Will I need one for each hopper and will it be viewable from the joeys? I have a Hopper 2000 with 2 joeys connected and a Hopper with Sling with 2 joeys connected.

You would need one for each hopper if you wanted each hopper to have OTA options. All joeys connected to a hopper with OTA adapter can indeed view the OTA channels.

What he said! Both my hoppers have the adapter and they work great.

Would I be able to use diplexers on the hopper line like on the VIP series for the OTA antenna? The antenna line comes in the basement right next to the DUO node.

Can basic Cox cable be connected to the OTA adapter?

Not that I know of.

I will have to check out my parents system, but I do not believe it can. If I remember, the one conversation I had with a cable company(TWC) in Texas, you could not do that. But they also played games about EHD as well.

I'm glad Dirt "Guru" Mattg removed CSR confusion my OTA adapters, in my 722k to Hopper change.

I use it all the time , little wonky 1st month but zero issues since then.

The only thing that sucks is that a lot of the guide info is not there for certain channels, have to bookmark schedule links (Phone / Computer) the OTA stations that don't show program info to see whats on.

Like the hopper ability to rewind viewing, in case you missed something. I can't do that when on just regular antenna mode, thru TV.
