Hi All, I am new to this list and just bought a new motorhome (my 3rd one) that has an automatic satellite tracking dome. I am considering changing my home...
What you call "DT service" is what you saw called "satellite service". You are good to go though you will loose your home local channels when you go a ways...
... Those who one Dish will sing its praise and versi/visey :) Firsts off, I have Direct so I'm used to setting it up when necessary with a tripod dish. Only...
I've never had Direct but it has to be better than Dish. Yes, I consider their setup to bee a pain as well but the biggest problem for us was theiroffice and...
Hi Ric, You say both DirecTV and DISH Network are owned by the same company? That's news to me, and I've been a very satisfied DISH customer for 10 years....
I was at a seminar at Camping World last year on Sat. dishes and the guy giving it made that statement. I assumed he knew what he was talking about but...........
George, you seem to know your stuff. Is it true that Directv programing (non HD) comes from one satellite? Do you know which one (119 or 110)? ... -- Randy...
Quite certain Direct TV uses sat 101 for it's basic service with up to five different sats for their future HD programming. Dish is going to 3 sats for their...
Hi Randy, If you have internet access take a look at this site for an excellent explanation of which satellite orbital locations are being used by each...
A couple of months ago an RV dealer installed a Kingdome system and my DVR receiver. I think I have a problem with the way the receiver is wired. My only...
The only way you can get both tuners is - that you have a dual head LNB in the KingDome and both outputs have been wired into the coach. If you don't have a...
Thanks George, My problem is that I have an older "in motion" domed dish that I use with DishNetwork but it will only get one satellite... 119 I think. I...
Hi Randy, As I've stated previously I have no first-hand knowledge of DirecTV hardware or programming so I can't help with specific questions about either. If...
In 2000, I switched from Dish to Direct TV for one reason. Local channels were becoming available and Dish required an elliptical dish to capture two...
May I butt in for just a minute on this conversation? I work for AT&T, therefore, we have Dish Network in our lineup. I've been playing with getting service...
The Kingdome has a primary and secondary feed. There should be two coax cables from the Kingdome connected to the rear of your DVR. It is very easy to...
Thanks to both Gale and Don for their information! I checked the back of the DVR and only one of the 2 available "Sat IN" has coax to it. So I need to run...
I had Dish for 3 years and got NY and LA distant networks. Everything I subscribed to was on the 119 sat(straight south of Reno I think). I did not have any...
... 1. They are not owned by the same company. They are at times vicious competitors. 2. While basic programming is all on one satellite for both Dish and ...
Hi everyone, Making plans for retirement which includes becoming a full-time RV'er. I am wondering what kind of base station antennas folks use on their...
Hi, Bob, I'm no expert, by any stretch of the imagination, but this is what I have. I have a 2M stick mounted on my ladder. I also have a ham stick for each...
Hi to Bob. I bought a skeleton slot antenna and mounted it on the back bumper. When I am driving down the road it slides down to the roofline but still works...
I have been trying to get a straight answer for my problem from Direct, Kingdome and a couple of RV dealers that sell Kingdome. My Kingdome is on a motorhome...
I had this problem when the tech set me up with one LNBF and a round dish even though the instructions said that it should be set up as an oval, 2 LNB dish. (I...
You have to have a landline the first time you set up the DVR. Just hook a phone to the back of the DVR and someone's jack and make the initial call. Once...
I have a Kingdome connected to a DVR. I can record two programs at once or record one and watch another program. You do not need to be connected to a ...
I hate to turn this forum into a Directv help desk but like most of us we'd do most anything to keep from calling Directv. I recently got Directv and wish to...
