My mother is visually impaired and suffers with arthritis. She has a Sony TV with Dish as her service provider. Will this work?

There is a button for Cable and Satellite, I don't see any reason why that would be an issue at least. Buttons are a good size for those with bad eyes, and considering how close the remote is, I don't see that being an issue either. As for arthritis, that's where I'm a little unsure. The buttons are not stiff, but the remote is large (in order to compensate for large buttons and clear lettering/numbering, I presume). I'd say it's a little smaller than an average house phone, maybe about 2/3's the size of one. I hope that helps, I'm just sorry it took this long for me to respond.

Yes. The buttons are 1/2 " round and large. We bought this for a relative who has poor vision and dementia and so far it works great. The remote is very simple and does not have alot of extra buttons like when you have a dvd/vcr attached to your tv. Just the basics to watch your tv using satellite. Hope this is helpful.

It's made from the same company as the remote so it should. The buttons have big characters on them but the manual is in small print so you may need to help her set up the remote before she can use it.

I think she might do better with a large button remote. This one has very small writing, unless she is good a memorizing the buttons...... I'd go with a large button if I were you.

This should work but I am not sure if you can access this function without the DISH subscription as you would have to first scan in the OTA channels. Good luck!!

You would have to look through DISH Remote Control programming guide and find the appropriate code for controlling a Vizio device Andy, I'm sure there is one or you could even google it to help find it quicker.

Not sure...we have cable and it is fine with that, but don't know about Dish...sorry.

Yes, absolutely, but it will not stream in HD because the dish is NOT an HD dish. This means you can use your HD receiver with it and you will get all your programing but it will stream STANDARD. We use our home HD receiver with ours and get all our programing wherever we go after setting it up. It takes me about 15 minutes to do all the set up. Good Luck.

Your best bet, Is to contact Dish. You'll have to contact them anyway to get a HD card to program your box anyway. Hope this helps.

I think it depends on which receiver you have. Dish customer service is great, they can answer that question for you.

My answer is based upon Directv do not know about Dish at all. Not sure about the TVs but the unit can work with 2 receivers. I have a DVR that has 2 receivers in it and it works fine with that.

This will work with any of the current "Single Wire" dishes and receivers. If your dish has a single wire coming out of it, with a single LNB, you will be fine. It will NOT work with older dishes and receivers.

Hey guys...the tv isn't the DishNetwork receiver. Of course it will work on the tv if it programs to RCA codes (BTW, DishNetwork remotes are RCA made), the Dish remotes only work on specific "Tv"s, like 1 and 2, because TV2 needs a UHF signal to reach the receiver remote antenna on the back of the receiver, to change channels: that isn't a TV feature .

We don't have dish. But it broke pretty soon after we bought it. Good luck!

No. This dish is only compatible with dish network. I know there are others compatible with direct tv but I can only answer for this one.

Your question is not explicit. However if the remote you are using is an infra red remote and you are trying to change channels on your dish receiver from a room that is out of the line of sight, it should work spectacularly when set up according to the instructions. I use mine with a cox cable remote and I love mine.

If the DISH satellite receiver has a signal output using RCA cables, should work fine. If the tv has a coax input.

The Logitech Harmony 650 works on this TV as well as your Dish? My TV is my 2nd (UHF) TV for Dish, will it work for that as well? Thanks

I don't recommend trying to mix Dish equipment with anything else. If it works, you got really lucky. They are even touchy about what splitters/combiners used with specific equipment. If you don't have solid advice from someone who understands satellite gear pretty well, don't bother. Equipment specific to Dish Network can be a mystery.

Sry I don't have the dish.. I guess you would call the dish so they can give you the codes to program the remote..
