Works well
Posted by Julie on Jul 9th 2019
After figuring out the quirks of the set-up, everything works great. I had to set up my parents, which didn't go as smoothly as ours, bur overall we'll love having the Playmaker.

Decent entry level antenna
Posted by Chris on Jun 17th 2019
The Playmaker is Winegard's entry level satellite antenna.
Pros: Inexpensive, automatic, 100% western channels, 90% eastern channels.
Cons: It's entry level, you are not paying for Winegard's best technology. You will need optional brackets to mount. Single LMB means it only connects to one Sat at a time, and takes a little time to switch between satellites. Will not work in-motion.
Overall: It's pretty amazing that this level of technology has become this inexpensive. -

Playmaker beginner antenna
Posted by Jim Rossman on Apr 27th 2019
We were very excited to finally have a satellite
system for our RV. After a couple of hours of
Technical support we were finally able to acquire a signal.
I won’t bore you with all the gyrations that entailed, some of which
was due to the first time hooking up through RV cable to Wally receiver. Eventually we acquired a signal. Found that the signal
was lost when we had rain or light snow. Overall this is a nice system.
The negative for us is that when I went to buy the Wally bundle
plus the added DVR harddrive, the salesman said it will work
just like our home Dish system. The Wally/Playmaker did record
okay, but we discovered that you can’t record 1 program and watch
another at the same time. This is due to this system only having one
tuner. Bottom line is that we purchased something that doesn’t fit
our needs. If it was available and the salesman would have recommended it, we would have purchased a 2 tuner system.
Don’t know yet if Dish will accept the return of Playmaker/Wally
and credit towards a 2 tuner system. -
Works well
Posted by Bruce on Apr 22nd 2019
I already had Dish service with a wally. I put it outside on a cardboard box and connected it. It was well packaged, but when I removed it from the box it seemed to rattle. Must be normal, because it took about 15 minutes to find satellites and run the set-up before I was watching TV.
I didn't give 5 stars because I am going to roof mount it on my RV. A Dish representative told me the front had to face South. Which is not marked on the dome. She said the cable connection was the back. That did not make sense to me because I would not always be able to park with the dome facing South. I then called Winegard, that representative told me that the unit goes 360 degrees. Which makes much more sense. So I think the descriptions and instructions could be more clear!! -
Playmaker survives flood
Posted by Christine Brown on Feb 28th 2019
We had a flash flood in the RV park we were at that. We had to go to higher ground ASAP and had very little warning. We only had time to undo septic, water and electric. Our Dish Playmaker was left to bob in the three feet flood waters for 24 hours, until the water receded. We both assumed it would be toast. Can not believe it worked perfectly the next day. Absolutely shocked. You don't want any other satellite for your RV. Indebted to you guys at Dish. Thanks for making such a great product.

I have been waiting for this portable unit for a long time!
Posted by David Stoika on Sep 1st 2018
At my camp in West Virginia, we have only been able to receive two channels on digital tv for many years. This unit works perfectly down there in the mountains. Our camp faces south so it was very easy just to set it on the front porch, hook it up and it instantly had satellite TV. What a great item to have if you’re travel.

Love It
Posted by Unknown on Aug 11th 2018
Easy set up doesn't loose signal even in monsoon storms. Live in SE Arizona work in SW New Mexico and don't have to change state setting which is good. comes right on when tv is turned on only has to reboot if power go's off or dish is unhooked. Also there is no front or back to this playmaker unit according to manufacturer dish inside the cover is able to rotate 360 degrees if anything I always face the handle north. Can't believe I didn't purchase this sooner.

Toss your old antenna out
Posted by John Bowden on Aug 9th 2018
Just the savings in set up time is worth the upgrade. I found the Playmaker easy to install and setup. Decided to mount mine on my Fifth wheel. Now I just park and start watching. Highly recommend.

Needs improvements
Posted by Sheri Geisler on Jul 10th 2018
We like having TV when we are staying in our but I don't like the fact that we have to go through a boot up and guide down load everytime we turn it on. You would think if a battery can be installed in phones and tables that the Dish receiver could have one to eliminate this problem. I'm not sure it's worth the trouble.

If I can do it......you can too! Easy hook up.
Posted by William Dunlap on Apr 16th 2018
The Dish Playmaker, and Wally Bundle are the perfect combo. For what we wanted in our RV. Easy to set up, easy to use. Along with an App. Called Sat finder, found on the Play Store, its easy to point your dish in the right direction for the best signal. We really love ours and would recommend this product to any one wanting to tailgate or have Dish in there RV.

New dish RV user
Posted by Unknown on Feb 7th 2018
Good product but they do leave out some info needed to get it working correctly. Like the handle on the playmaker needs to face North so the dish faces south. Cable connections can be touchy too.
