    We have had our Winegard Carryout for several years now.This product is awesome. We can receive our Bell TV on it here in Canada and in the US! We get both east and west feed and have ours going in the Rio Grande Valley. The further you are south and west for us (we are in Ontario) the more difficult it is but so far we have never had a problem. We leave ours all plugged in at home and it works just fine. The best product for RVer's ever!! I do believe there is one somewhere that works for Shaw as well. Totally different one though. If you are on Bell you won't be sorry for your purchase.

    Connects to only one satellite at a time.


    0 out of 0 people found this review helpful.
    May 21, 2012
    This Carryout only allows you to connect to only one satellite at a time. I had to change from Dish Network to Direct Network in order to view different programs on different satellites. Dish has two satellites that you must connect to, while I can get most all my programming on one satellite from Direct and watch all channels on both of my recievers. I go to Texas for the winters and must still get the local channels over my air antenna since Direct has them on a different satellite; but all the rest of the channels are on the one satellites. If you are watching a program on satelllite 110 on Dish Network and then change to watch a program on satellite 119, your other receiver also changes to satellite 119 and thus you lose what you were watching on that receiver. I dropped Dish and went with Direct and no longer have this problem.

    First thing you need to do is read all the directions twiceand then start putting it together LOL. Had t0 switch to Dish Network no problems. My only problem was with Dish Network they had problems getting my service changed over. After talking to 3 different people it went great. Reception was very good. It does make noise but that is normal . Just set in on the tripod and away it went. Like having the 50'power cord and cable.

    Finished removing the old sat antenna from the RV roof, installed the ladder mount, ran the cables and in minutes was watching my favotite programs! A far cry from the old unit waiting to find the signal and having to get up hit the switch to change satellites and hope it would find the next satellite when changing channels. Now if I'm in the trees just move the unit not the RV! Great product.

    This portable satellite Dish is Great I use it Everytime I Go Outside in my Backyar and Swim and on Trips to. I also Found a Dish Tailgater By Dish Network it's another Portable Satellite Dish That Let's You Watch TV Wherever You Go and it Finds The SatelliteAutomatically. the Receivers You Can Only Use On it is The VIP 211 and The VIP 211K No Dual Receivers Can Be used With It Only The VIP 211 and The VIP 211K. Even though DVRs are Not Compatabale With The Portable Dish Tailgater It Would Still Be a Very Good Portable Satellite Dish I Could Have Two Of Them Since It's Smaller oThanThe Winegard Satllighte Dish. IF Camping World Started selling The Portable Dish Tailgater From Dish Network I Would Be Looking at It too.

    Good Purchase

    We bought this portable antenna to use tailgating. We have a Winegard in-motion unit on our RV and have been very happy for four years. The carryout is great when we have our SUV or want to add another TV for sports etc. Very simple to use after a quick set-up. If you are familiar with DISH and do a Check Switch after you change your location the antenna locks on quickly. Plugs into cigarette lighter but get the 12v/110 converter for plugging into a generator or outlet for flexibility. We us the DISH 211HD receiver from Camping World also. They make a great pair with no issues. Since we bought our Carryout a number of tailgaters around us have also purchased this antenna because you can put on top of your car where it can't get bumped into and it is completely automatic so away with tripods, satellite finders, cussing and yelling at DISH. Lowered my blood pressure.

    This antenna does work as advertised. Initial setup took a few minutes but after that it is a hookup and forget it. Finding a open spot in the trees for reception takes longer than getting it working. I can move it a few feet and never lose reception.

    It was simple, changed the dip switches for Dish Network, plugged it in, went through a quick setup menu and I had TV, unlike trying to find a satellite and setting azimuth and elevations. Takes the work out of setting up at different sites.

    This Antenna is the simplest portable satellite antenna that I have used or seen. Once an account is set-up, plug it in to your satellite receiver & plug in the antenna, & watch what you want! IT'S GREAT! I will recommend this system to anyone looking for a portable satellite antenna unit!

    being to new to rv satelite this was my first (as well as the dish installer for my house) worked easily right out of the box , used ladder mount and have been enjoying trouble free for 6 months now, after reading stories online about finding and setting up was worried but this is hasslw free, plug it in , give a few to downlaod to recv, and your watching hd. Ordered dish for my house and added the 211 rcvr along with others in house and only costs extra 7 mo and just keep it in the rv.

    This item will not work if your camper is wired with antenna spliters to serve other TV's. Satellite has to be wired directly into the TV your watching. The unit does have two connectors for other TV's. Wish this was addressed in the advertisement.

    Thanks to Larry, who said that the extra cable was under the bottom piece of foam, I probably would have thrown it out also. I took it out camping and my son had it set up in a matter of minutes. We got crystal clear reception and never had the first bit of trouble with it. I am very satisfied and plan on taking it everywhere I go.

    False Advertising

    July 22, 2011
    This product is not worth a dime. The advertising states it's automatic and can have you online in minutes. We purchased the antenna in May and had to have Direct TV come to align it and now we are on vacation in Ohio and it cannot find a signal. We are not in a remote area and in fact our rooftop antenna is picking up 14 digital channels. Calls to Windgard and Direct TV produced nothing as it is now our problem. Do not purchase this item if you want to watch TV. We are very disappointed that we purchased this item and cannot use it.

    Love this thing , bought it the end of 2010 have used it here at home and now in Redmond Washington, finds all three dish network satellites in about 5 minutes am using a 211K with a usb hard drive works great for dvr, I would suggest the ladder mount it comes with 50ft of both cables and a switch for inside mount to turn the antenna on and off works great

    Pretty slick (when it works)


    2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.
    July 13, 2011
    We've had the unit just over six months. It has taken the last two months, but ours finally completed its slow death spiral a few hours ago. Keep your receipt (we didn't) - the registration card you send in is useless as far as warranty work goes. When it worked, it was a cool unit. We have DishTV and the pay-as-you-go receiver. Usually found all the satellites within 15 minutes of set up. I can only recall a few times where we lost signal due to bad weather. Light in weight and easy to carry. Somewhat bulky to store, but we did find space in our 5th wheel. Our problem appears to be a bad power cable. Can't get another power cable without a copy of our original receipt. This is just one of many, many, many things we have bought in the last three years from the RV industry that doesn't work. I tired of being sold stuff by the RV industry that doesn't work.

    Bought this system a few months ago and am 100% pleased. Works great with Directv and the setup is so simple. Now I spend a few minutes , two at the most setting it up and getting it going. Can be watching TV in as little as five minutes. The only problem is that using it with Directv is that you can't get HD as you can with dish. Still a great item for the investment. Great time saver, frustration easier, and simple to use.
