Can we use this dish at our house in Arizona with a receiver from our house in California? If so how can we do that?

We have Direct TV on our sailboat in San Diego. The dish is installed on the dock post next to the slip where we moor our boat. The coax cabled from the dish goes to the receiver on the boat. Direct TV charges us $6 a month for an extra receiver. This setup only work when the boat is in the marina slip.

Once you have a dish setup for all your homes, then all you need to do is take your receiver from any location (ANY STATE)to any of your homes regardless the state and it will work, KEEP IN MIND if you don't call Direct-TV and have it updated to that local area you won't get local channels, it will be trying to pull in the other locations local channels in which you won't get either....... Really simple and we do this twice yearly ourself; we go between Arizona & Oregon in an RV that also have a Satellite Dish(tailgater type dome model) on top and it automatically locks onto the satellite needed, so we use same Receiver between AZ and OREGON and every where we go in between...... :) Once you have a dish setup for all your homes, then all you need to do is take your receiver from any location (ANY STATE)to any of your homes regardless the state and it will work, KEEP IN MIND if you don't call Direct-TV and have it updated to that local area you won't get local channels, it will be trying to pull in the other locations local channels in which you won't get either.......

Yes, the dish will need to be set up with the correct azimuth (compass angle), elevation angle (degrees off horizon) and clear view in that direction. With a little fine tuning of the pointing of the dish, then your receiver will work in either location. Caveat that both dishes are similar, non-HD style. I have self installed (search web for self install instructions) in four locations as well as my truck camper (must set azimuth and elevation at each location). Suggest look for local DirecTV independent installer to set up your dish.

You need to have dish network service. This Joey needs a Hopper from Dish to work

This does work with Dish Anywhere to an extent. You can use it as a "hopper" to watch live TV, your DVR or download movies. I keep this in a camper that I use as an office outside my house and watch TV, run the DVR etc. using the wifi from my house. I can also use it in campgrounds that offer wifi. The one thing I have been unable to do is transfer recordings to it to watch when the device is offline. The device has a partition, I think 2GB, on the onboard memory. The dish anywhere app is stored on that partition and will not allow me to store the downloads on the other 6GB or on the 32GB micro SD I purchased for such. The app only allows me to store the downloads on the same drive as the app and there is not enough space. The android version that the device uses does not allow me to move the app to the SD card which I think would also solve the problem. I do wish that downloads would work but I am very happy with the rest. It is about all that I use it for.

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.

My opinion from reading the reviews would be no, but that is only my non-professional answer. I would call Dish directly and ask them.

We got one for our motor home, but it should work the same way. Dish was excellent in walking us through the process once your satellite dish and receiver are hooked up.

Need to ask Dish. It seems like it could as long as you can get reception. They did tell me that if I didnt have home dish, the cost is higher with only tailgator than home dish cost.

Yes, but the Hopper is not compatible with your existing wiring & satelite dish. You just can't swap out the Hopper with a standard DVR/receiver from Dish. You need a whole new setup.

Not sure...we have cable and it is fine with that, but don't know about Dish...sorry.

Yes but not sure the receiver will move a large dish.You also have really limited programming .

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 think it depends on which receiver you have. Dish customer service is great, they can answer that question for you.

Your Satellite Dish should be DISH Network and it should be an HD Satellite Dish. If these requirements are met along with a DISH network subscription then you should be able to use the 612 Dual Tuner with this system. If you have the Over the Air(OTA) module installed in your receiver then you should also be able to hook up an aerial antenna to your receiver as well to receive your local OTA channels. I hope this helps. Good luck.

YES!! This dish will work fine with Dish Network. I use it with the Dish VIP211Z receiver with no issues.
