Please note: While all non-local programming are accessible with a DISH Playmaker, only locals that broadcast from a western arc satellite will be available.

It is what it is, it arrived and simple installation. Instructions could be a little more involved, but no re al complaints. So far it's working great.

Worked well right out of the box. The VR app was a great help in locating satellites through limited openings in campsite trees.

I ran into some issues when starting up the system but called Dish RV and their techs walked me through it and it works great.

Installation was easy and programming is only $7 month when you have Dish.

Connected everything and this antenna worked great. Didn'texactly have a totally clear view of the southern sky, but it still brought all the channels in clear.

In less than an hour after delivery, I was up and activated. I purchased for my RV and did a test setup on my property. I was very impressed how quickly the PlayStation found the Satellite.

Got tired of directv switched to dish for Rv Came in good condition and quickly. Got satilite and first receiver going with better picture quality quickly. Second receiver would acquire signal but not download Chanel guide . Called tech support and went through several restarts and checked firmware was current determined receiver was bad , they sent replacement in three days Have not installed yet as trip ended

So far it works good. Haven't had time to really play with it yet, since we went home to our home a week after getting the dish.

All automatic!! Once you have a clear view of the southern sky it finds the SAT's and your ready to go. The receivers take some time to get through the initial set up process (activation, guide download, etc.). I did have to call for Tech support when I kept getting error message about signal loss (thought maybe a bad receiver). Once the Tech wasn't able to help me any longer, 15 minutes later it was working fine.

Thou I've only used this twice. So far works great with easy setup!

I didn’t find it to be a plug-n-play device. It real needs a North - South indicator embossed on the dome rather than just using the handle for north I think. I use the compass app on my cell phone to align by sitting my cell phone on top of the dome to alignment of North. In Yellowstone, with the mountains and forest, it took a few tries before it locked on to a satellite. However, the fact that it did ultimately find the satellite under the circumstances I would say is an endorsement.
