We use our home receiver, from Bell, then you just have your one satellite account.

No problem. I upgraded my dish net receiver to one of the newer dvr receivers and keep the old original dish reciever which I put in my motorhome and I use the winegard GM 1518 for the motor home. Everything works great and is easy to use. You will have to pay net about $7 a month to use the 2nd reciever in the motorhome. When you move about in the motorhome to different geographic locations you will need to call DISH NETWORK and advise them of your new location (address and zip code) to get local stations there--this is a free service and takes just of few minutes.

I use my home receiver from DirectTv without any changes. I just plug it in and the satellite does the rest. There is a switch under the white dome that must be changed if you are using a Dish receiver. I don't have to switch it but according to the instructions it's just a flip of the switch to change the receiver/satellite settings.

If you have a Dish Network Receiver from home the Dip switches must be set for Dish Network inside the Carryout befor it will come up. The Carryout Instructions will tell what ones to set. If you have Direct, the Dip switches must be set for Direct. Remember you must reset the Receiver to work with the Carryout. Do you know how to do the reset? It is a long process and I have it down pat.

Yes you can if your tv or cable box has output jack. But I don't know about dish tv.

No. DISH Receivers: Solo HD receivers. (Examples: DISH 211z, 211k, 211, and 411 receivers.). Here is the factory webpage: http://www.winegard.com/pathway/pathway-tech-specs

Yes. Coax is preferred. Ethernet works but might not be supported by Dish (go to satelliteguys dot com for that). And then there's adding wireless to an existing Joey, or just buying a wireless Joey.

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.

It will work work for either dish-dtv, as for HD "I don't have a receiver" but my understanding is the receiver is what converts signal to HD. All the dish does is capture the signal the receiver does the rest. Hope this helps.

No, as long as the Dish TV is hooked up to the present TV, you shouldn't need any additional cables. You still have to run the Dish satellite receiver coax from the output N connector on the Dish box and then to the antenna input N connector on the RCA TV. There are additional RCA phono jacks on the Dish box that can be used with the new RCA. You'd need a set of RCA cables for that. If the box has an HDMI output, you can buy an HDMI cable and then hook that to the TV, by passing the need for other cables.

The simple answer is yes. You have to either be a DISH subscriber and add this receiver to your account (about $7 a month as I recall) or use the month to month subscription that some RVers use. You can stop and start as you like but will be charged for that particular month that you use it.

Any dish receiver will work as long as it does not require a broadband connection.If you cant get the receiver GM5000 to work. you maybe forgetting a step like I did. Start from scratch and follow the manual. What I don't like is having to spend an hour on the phone every time we move.

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.

Yes. They are both hi-def receivers and this is a hi-def dish. You will also need an LNB for the dish. You can get a SWM LNB, this is current type of LNB, or you can get an older style LNB that has four outputs and requires a B-Band converter for each receiver. Search "SWM technology" for a more detailed explanation of how it compares to the older technology. Good luck!

Not exactly sure of what you're asking. This device will stream the Dish Satellite channels that you already subscribe to to an internet-equipped device. You need a satellite subscription and high-speed internet in your home to be able to stream the channels to wherever you are remotely.

I'm sorry but I can't answer that question as I do not use the Dish Network receiver myself.

This is a satellite receiver and you will have to have an active account with Dish Network

I think I need a sony TV. I decided to connect the dish directly and use the receiver only for movies and games.Sometimes you want to watch some programs on mute anyways...Thank you for your input

That is a good question. A satellite dish can only accomodate so many receivers. That number of receivers is going to depend on how many LNB's the dish has. You are going to have to be independently attached to an LNB. My overall answer would be YES you need your own dish to enjoy programming!

most of our information was obtained from the net can't remember what site. What you need depends on what type of receiver you have. Sorry couldn't be of more help
