Adding Satellite dish

[Kurt Horvath]

Don,

I didn't quite understand the part about Direct TV. Was it the part
about Hi-Def. or that it wouldn't work with the in motion unit.
I had Dish Net in the house and when I tried to get it in the coach
they said no way Jose. I asked Direct for in motion service for the
coach and they answered no problem, then gave me a better deal than
Dish for the house, shop, and coach. $98.00 for 180 channels + 50
movie channels, XM and a bunch of other stuff I never watch or listen
to. I can't tell the difference in reception from base station dish,
house and shop or in-motion,coach, they both work great.

significant - they always work less-well than an open-face unit. Why?
Because with satellite, dish size is important, and in-motion have
the smallest dishes of them all. However, if reception while under-
way is an important criteria the compromise may be worth it.

I would not buy any more TV items for home or coach that was not HD-
compatible. For DirecTV that would have ruled out in-motion as well,
although it is at least technically possible to do in-motion TV with
Dish network.
