Gordon, the speech would be on all 4 tvs. You'll have the one hopper, and
the other 3 receivers they call joliettes, which I might be spelling wrong.
If you go with dish we recomend the hopper 3 because it's their most recent
receiver. It's been reported that the audio description does work, though we
can't varify it. If you do get xm in your package we don't know if you would
have those big dropouts as I mentioned before. We should know something
about that in the next week.

Ok so I have four tvs that I would want service on. So would I need the
hopper connected to my tv in my room or will the speech be available on
all boxes in the house?

Both the Hopper 2 and 3 have there Text to Speech interface and most of
the normal day to day things are accessible ... it’s when you try to do
some of the setup and more advanced things that it’s not accessible. But,
watching TV ... looking at the guide ... working with recordings .. they
all work pretty good.

If anyone goes with dish network, here's what you need to know. The
following receivers have software problems. The wally is the worst. It
does have accessibility. This receiver doesn't work with audio
description. It is in the receiver, but dish has not been able to fix it
so it will work. If you buy the xm package you'll have lots of ramdom
dropouts of audio lasting any where from 10 to 30 seconds. They are
ramdom, but they will sure mess up your favorite songs. The next receiver
is the 211, it doesn't have accessibility but on the xm channels you'll
get ramdom dropouts lasting from 1/2 to 1 second. The hoppers have
accessibility but we don't have anything to report about these receivers,
though we might know something soon. If anyone else knows more about the
hopper receivers, let us know about them. We've been with dish for 21
years, and we're hoping they will resolve the issues with the receivers.
The price does sound good.

Subject: Dish network questions
So after not getting a deal that I could be happy with from At&t
yesterday I've decided to look at other options. I'm considering
Spectrum for internet and Dish for TV depending on what you guys say
about it since they have some really good deals. I hear that they now
having talking boxes, so I was wondering if anyone here has any
experiences with those. but just as important, how accessible is the IOS
app to interact with the equipment? Can you manage and schedule
recordings from your phone? I can get 290 channels from dish for $104
and At&t wants $137 for the exact same thing. And I'm only able to get
45 down on my internet which about 20 of that is reserved for TV. And
with my daughter and everyone who lives here, 24 down isn't enough.
