King KOP4800 One Pro Premium Satellite TV Antenna - Works with Dish, DIRECTV, or Bell (Canada), Western Arc Satellites, Clear (Smoke)

I was running a SWM dish on Direct tv. I wanted to upgrade to a SWM dish for the top of the RV. This option was 1600 dollars that I did not want to spend. After a lot of research i ordered this. I was a little worried about the conversion from the SWM, but I just eliminated the SWM power supply and followed the Direct TV dish setup screen and I was good to go. I mounted this on top of my motorhome. Get to your new location and push the button and start your receiver...viola TV and did not have to even go outside other than to plug in the RV to electricity. I am really impressed and for 400-500 dollar range it works great. I save a thousand bucks, but no HD programming... oh well that's part of roughing it. This is the one to get if you want an easy conversion.

We had been using a manual set up when we RV'd and had been wanting to get an antenna that could locate the satellite for DIRECTV. The first time we tried using it, it located the satellite but it wouldn't bring in the local channels. So we took it home and set it up there, and it worked. Again, we tried it and all we could get was the guide for watching. We started trouble shooting and discovered the problem was not with the antenna but a loose connection in the RV. Then we had a great picture with all channels. We took it back on our last camping trip, and we were watching tv within 10 minutes of set up. For us, it worked as advertised and locates the satellite every time. We were taking the back up antenna with us but now we know this works great. We have only used it on local trips so it will be interesting to see how it works when we leave the current satellite area. I would recommend that the stand and case be bought at the same time as it is cheaper. Plus, we are looking at buying an alarm for it if we ever camp in an unsecure area. Great product for the price.

It came well packed in factory packaging. The unit was lighter than I expected and it should be handled and packed carefully, that said, I just followed the quick start instructions, set it on the ground with a clear view of the southern sky and in about 8 minutes it had a good signal. You do have to have the correct Direct TV receiver. If in doubt, give them a call. That's what I did and I found them very helpful. Also you can not get HD TV with this dish. Since it is designed to sit on just about anything and can be permanently mounted on the roof of your RV I know it is weather proof, but if you set it on the ground I don't think it would survive rising water. (more than 3 inches.) For that reason I wish they offered a short tripod as an option. Overall a good experience if your tired of manually aiming a manual dish. Update: 11/02/2015. Still working well. No problems.

I bought this to replace the dish that I had to struggle to set up each time when I took out the RV. Thought it would be so much easier. Received it and tested it. The test was a quick on and seemed to work ok. Since it was for the RV it sat there until our next trip. Sadly this trip is 2 days past the return window for Amazon and it doesn't work. It finds satellites, just usually not the right one. When it does find 101 it doesnt communicate with my D12 reciever. The strenght of the signal never gets above 74%. The reciever keeps searching for a satellite signal but doesn't ever find it. It worked somewhat one night, but would only get about 1/4 of the channels I should get. I tried customer service. All I could ever get was a recording that said they were getting a lot of calls (I bet so if this is how their equpment is) and it would be anywhere from 24 to 72 hours for a return call. Still waiting. I am so disappointed with this. I have wasted a lot of money I could have well used elsewhere. I am going back to my old metal dish and hope that some day I will be able to get some trouble shooting help and figure out what to do with this. It is not heavy enough to make a good anchor and it is a poor yard ornament. I would not waste your money on this. If things change I will update this review, but don't hold your breath the way things are going.

Great product. The instructions for setup leave out a key programming instruction. (Set receiver to single tuner) Took 2 days to talk with tech support. 5 minutes to fix issue.

Truck driver. 2 mins tv working

I was looking forward to this product. After waiting for several days; I found out the product is not in the original box and the insertor was missing. I had to return it.

Didn't work with bell and I called king and the service people wasn't able to make it work...

Works great easy to install and set up

This portable satellite dish is easy to setup and use. For my application with Bell this did not work at the time that I tried. Wishing it works for you 📡
