Q: Can I watch HD while my vehicle is in motion?

A: Yes. DISH’s satellite technology allows customers to watch HD programming while the vehicle is moving if equipped with a compatible auto-tracking portable antenna. DISH is the only affordable option for in-motion HD.

Q: I have three TVs in my RV. Can I hook all of them up?

A: Yes, customers can purchase up to three 211z receivers to activate in their RV. However, this requires an antenna that can support three receivers.

Q: Can I get local networks?

A: Yes, local networks are available in your home market. Your home market is determined based on your service address.

DISH’s receiver technology will even allow you to import local stations into your programming guide.

Q: Is installation included?

A: No. Sometimes customers are able to do the setup on their own. If you need someone to do an installation you will need to visit your local RV dealership.

Q: I already have DISH at home. How can I get it for my RV?

A: No problem! First purchase a DISH Mobile ViP 211 series HD Receiver and compatible antenna, then you can add your new receiver directly to your existing account for an additional $7 a month. To add a receiver onto your home account call DISH at 1-800-333-3474.

Q: What is the difference between DISH and DIRECTV?

Q: Can I get international channels?

A: International channels are now only broadcasting on satellite 118w and are no longer on the eastern arc. As a result, there are no mobile antennas capable of picking up these channels.

If you only have Pay-As-You-Go programming, all you need to do is not pay your next invoice. This will automatically disconnect your services.
