About Dish TV?

[NY_Dutch]

Be aware... When Dan contacted https://www.dishformyrv.com/ they also said Dish did not support Hopper in motorhomes, only the Wally.  It may depend on who you talk to but they may only be able to recommend an installer etc..  Their web site only shows the Wally.

Please let us know how you fair,

Dish claims the hard drive in the DVR's are not rated to withstand travel related vibrations, which is why the don't support them for that use. As hundreds of fulltimers and likely many more part-timers know, they do in fact hold up quite well in RV use. Our Hopper w/Sling has been in our coach for the past 5 years with no problems to date. Note that "not supported" is not the same as "can't be done"...

We have had DISH only in the trailer for about a year. We are on the RV pay as you go plan, so when we know we will be parked at home we just take it off auto pay. In reality this only works about half the time. They really really really want to bill you.

We have also learned that you MUST log in to your account and reactivate if you haven't used your system for just a week. This means dragging out the self contained sat we have and hooking everything up just to pack it all back up and travel.

My second point is the most important.
