Adding Satellite dish

[Leroy Eckert]

For info, I have in motion satellite with DISH service in the home and bus as a package deal. Have had it for 4 years in two states of residence. More channels than I will ever watch, Sirius radio, local TV stations, and ESPN Game Plan. It works well.

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.

The compromises with an in-motion unit are 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. > > For me, I decided 3 years ago, which was prior to my BB days, that 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. > > For in-motion listening Sirius or XM does the job nicely. > > Don Bradner > 90 PT40 "Blue Thunder" > Motosat SL-5 HD and Sirius radio > Posting today by satellite from Lexington, VA > > > On 9/14/2008 at 9:36 PM P & D wrote: > > >I don't know that we will use it much, but we enjoy listening to cnn and > >when we take the grand kids it will be nice, but we figure for 400 more > >than > >a fixed unit it was worth the extra money. > > > > > > > >Paul > > > >87pt38 > > > >Hesperia ca > > > > > > > > _____ > > > >From: "WanderlodgeForum%40yahoogroups.com" > >[mailto:"WanderlodgeForum%40yahoogroups.com"] On Behalf Of Gregory OConnor > >Sent: Sunday, September 14, 2008 8:17 PM > >To: "WanderlodgeForum%40yahoogroups.com" > >Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Re: Adding Satellite dish > > > > > > > >Will you use an in motion?
