Call dish for service, torpedo level, signal meter. Your friend should have meter. Did the oval dish come with the tripod You will need settings from dish.

Absolutely, just as long as the lnbf (the eyes) isn't a dinosaur. It should say Dish Pro Plus.

Dish antena either dish 500 or high Def antena will work. Get a dish pointing app or Google dish pointer and you can set it up yourself. This box has a signal strength meter built in the point dish menue. Google all this and you can do all this easily. Dish 500 has two white recievers on the arm of the dish and only does standard def the antena with 3 recievers does high def

Yes you can if it is a Dish Network LNB on the end. Dish's LNB will work on either Dish or Direct I've been told but Direct LNB only works for Direct. (LNB is the "eye" on the end where connections are made)

Yes with this system you can either remove the included Plate holder mount , or you can do like me and put a plate on the bottom of a head and use it either way with or without Tripod head I like doing it this way for versatility.

I don't have dish, so I am not sure if it will work. I do have a universal remote that has been programmed to work on 4 functions through my amp. I use it to watch, blueray, cable, Apple TV or listen to radio or iPod. That would be your best choice for configuring both TV and dish.

No, as long as the Dish TV is hooked up to the present TV, you shouldn't need any additional cables. You still have to run the Dish satellite receiver coax from the output N connector on the Dish box and then to the antenna input N connector on the RCA TV. There are additional RCA phono jacks on the Dish box that can be used with the new RCA. You'd need a set of RCA cables for that. If the box has an HDMI output, you can buy an HDMI cable and then hook that to the TV, by passing the need for other cables.

The simple answer is yes. You have to either be a DISH subscriber and add this receiver to your account (about $7 a month as I recall) or use the month to month subscription that some RVers use. You can stop and start as you like but will be charged for that particular month that you use it.

all the new ones and I have old tivo boxes @ 6yrs old that r hooked up! The lnb is the reciever part on the dish n the box has selection for dish installed Check w/ DTV for real answer

You can definitely use the receiver. The dish is not really setup for long term use. It only weighs a pound or so and would not be very stable in high winds. Also it would be real easy to steal.

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

You can use it with any tripod, has a hole for the screw on the bottom, you can use any type of quick release system plate

Your system is set up through your box and programming. What local channels you get will be part of that programming and this tripod will have no bearing on what you can see. If you currently have a P.R. local channel you will get it no matter where you set your system up as long as your dish can "see" the satellites you are connected to.

You'll need a tripod with a tilt head to make the best use of it. A removable plate is a must as well.

This is part of the DISH Network home TV system. You need a dish, and a hopper actually.

I unscrew the accessories dish so the tripod folds up.you can then story it in a corner with out taking up a lot of room

it will connect to cband dish but does not have the capabilities to move dish.In order to move dish I would recommend the vbox or any similar mover of your choice.

I don't think so. According to the description, the receiver says it is compatible with current Dish subscription.

Awesome product...I love mine. You do need the proper dish receiver to operate the dish. The 311 won't work. When buying the KD5500, it tells which receiver will work. I have the 411K. They are well under $100 at Camping World and Amazon.,
