Does anyone know the maximum cable length I can use with this dish?

I'm not sure of the maximum. Ours was 50 ft long and got stellar reception.

Maximum of 50 feet is recommended. Found his dish nearly impossible to find necessary satalites for HD that must be done each time I relocate my motorhome. Abandoned this unit for a "tailgater" and love it.

max length rg6 cable 50 foot shorter is better, dish says 11/03/14, but I had the 50 foot cable and worked just fine

I think the maximum length of bnc cables are 656 feet. You may have to look at a wireless option. http://www.ehow.com/decision_6867184_long-can-run-bnc-cable_.html

I had been using the 612 receiver in my RV for the last year, and just upgraded to the Hopper last week. So I would say you can use any receiver Dish has. When upgrading to the Hopper, they did need to put an extra cable box in the line. It seems to be a 4"x4"x3/4" box that connects two jacks on the dish to the one cable feeding the receiver. (leaving one jack to send signal back to the bedroom receiver if not using the Joeys) Something about feeding more power to the dish elements. I will say the images are better, big Seattle downpour last night, no image interference at all!

Hi, Greg!Your best bet is to go to this page: ClearStream 4 Indoor/Outdoor HDTV Antenna with Mount - 70 Mile Range and look for "A Message from the Antennas Direct Team" way down the page. There, you'll find a phone number and you can call the mfr directly to ask whatever questions you need answered. Before you call, look at your TV set to determine which inputs it has (write those down). If you're planning to use the cables from the dish as the cables you'll use from this antenna, try to read the cable type on the cable jacket and write that down also. There may be an impedance issue that will require a different cable.

A low loss coax cable is the key. RG213 or even RG8X will work a LOT better than RG8 or god forbid RG58. It's more expensive but it's worth it. My question is at what length does a longer cable harm reception more than help it? 50 feet? 75 feet? Also when you buy it make sure it comes with pre soldered ends on it not raw. There's an art to cable ends and you don't know it! Have an experienced HAM put them on.

I regret that I am not familiar with "dish receiver" technology. You may go to the Pyle website to ask this question.

a little bigger than the 18'' round dish but will work with all directv receivers

Your best bet is to go online to the Dish website. It works just like regular cable. There are several packages you can choose from. You can get anything you can get at home.

I have Dish Network connectyed to 1 input & my cable TV system connected to the other. I get great reception on my TV. If one connects multiple TV sets to the output with splitters, the signal may very well be degraded.

I'll try to answer, the connection goes into Optical Digital Audio Out (amplifier needed with this RCA Ant) I'm not sure where your Dish connects to. I know I have to change on my remote menu Cable to TV Antenna selection. Not sure if I helped at all.

I wouldn't use over a 7dbi to send signal! Never more then a 5 to 7dbi antenna to send. Then you need to know if your connection is a RP-SMA or what before buying. If you need more help let me know I am a pro in these matters. Mike

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

No. You'll want to just connect via the USB cable (make sure you've activated the Dish driver with your computer.)

it looks like about 5 feet, you could probably extend it with another coax cable though\

It is directv approved which encompasses the Dish Network range of cable. Dish used coppoer clad and anything solid copper is better so it is better than. Either way it will work fine if you are using it for dish network.
