Anybody know where I can purchase a portable dish, tri-pod, DVR receiver for Directv between Key Largo and Collier Seminole State Park in Naples, FL. I'll be on the road tomorrow. Camping World is about 45 north of Naples but pretty far out of the way. I've done all kind of dealer searches and not come up with anything except catalog stuff. Might even consider a Winegard carryout or Nuvi Cube.

Thanks,

If you were at home, I'd say to swing by and I could give you a tripod and dish I'm not using since I switched to Dish.

Go to Best Buy. You can purchase a DirecTv DVR for $99.99 with activation card.

Sounds good on the DVR. I could probably buy the tri-pod and signal finder from a guy here in Key Largo but I still need the dish! I might stop and pick up the DVR, though. I wish I could remember what I have at home in the fifth wheel that was never used. I carried it just in case and forgot to put it in this rig.

Is there any problem with telling DTV what I'm doing? Used to be they wanted a new service; then they wanted $4.99 a month. Now I understand there is no problem?

Thanks.

I have the old dish off of my house and I use the reciever from my bedroom when I go camping. I mounted it to a base and it is easy to point and set up. I have not told direct tv what I am doing.

No problem. You are just adding another rec. to your system. Same account and location will be RV. Just the added $4.99 a month.

I have 2 rec. in house and 1 in RV. My last rec. came from Best Buy.
