Yes I have same situation. You can take box to camper it will go thru locating signal and program guide. I had to use a cheap signal meter to set dish up at camper. Also a little tip cover the 2 outside lnb's with foil while finding SATs. Google pointing this dish. Lot's of info..

Good morning , I returned my receiver , the best way is to find a software to update for sat selection !! Or just go to sat forum . Good luck

It sounds like you may have hit the 'sat' button at the top of the Dish remote instead of the 'tv' button when you programmed it. You will probably have to call Dish to get the 'sat' code working again and after that, hit 'tv' and repeat process. Hope this helps.

i use my dish for my camper and i also use the "dish aligner" i just back and looked at my account for a part number but couldnt find one. sorry. i just had directv at the house to reset the dish. i asked him about his meter he said any good meter should work. of course im not crazy about spending 200$ for a good meter. thats why i bpught the other tool.no meter required. good luck.

If your head unit has Sirius listed on it, all you should have to do is order a subscription. Go to your Sat button and if you get the preview channel announcing program lineups, then all you need to do is subscribe, no need to purchase this. If not, then go to your Toyota dealer and have them run your VIN to see if you have Sirius or XM for your unit, the connections are different for each. This will save you a lot of time taking out the head unit just to find its the other device and have to purchase another and return that one, then pull the head unit out again.

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.

you do have to have a satellite dish. hope you have better luck than i did. i got one it did not work. sent it back and they sent me another one that also did not work. i have another receiver so i know it is not my system. There support team just said they knew it worked so I just took the loss.

I do not think the dish will make any difference. You need to have a HD capable TV. Easy to mount, especially if the roof already carries terrestrial aerial. Cheers

I am not sure. I would suggest that you check with direct TV and let them know what receiver you have and what dish you want to get. I can tell you that it is relevantly easy to set up once you have done it a couple of times. We are camping now and people are asking Me about signal, they have auto type and having trouble with good signal and I have no problems and getting high definition. If you order from oasis and get the setup kit it goes pretty soomthly. The bigger dish helps a lot. The auto ones are a lot smaller and you may not get as good of a signal.

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.

If you are "leasing" it from Dish they should come out and fix any problems unless you drop it or something like that. But, you are locked in to the two year contract. If you buy one, I don't know what type of warranty it might have. I am still having some of the same problems with my Joeys that seem to be software related and these issues have not been fixed.

There's a different dish for Direct. You want to make sure you have the right dish for your service, because the dish is programed for that service's satellites.

I use a 36 inch dish with an FTA KU band LMB, not the KA like dishnet and directv use. Right here on Amazon there is a 36" dish w/KU lmb I live in South East Texas and get over 400 channels pointing at G-19 alone. Hope this helps.

Yes you need a satellite dish adjusted to the correct direction, and a few other steps. Like before please refer to fta forums...

the thing is Called LMB and no you will also need the dish satellite and receiver. to be able to use dish.

Yes it will, but you may be better off get a dish that will auto line up with the satillite. I used this dish several times, sometimes I could line up with the satillite without any problems, but other times, I could not. I bought me a automatic dish (one that will line up by itself) and now I do not have any problems finding the satillite.
