1. Not good

   Posted by Beatrice Higginbotham on May 20th 2019

   Ordered Playmaker to use when camping. Was told I would get same package as home service. When set up Playmaker would not pick up my local channels. Had to use a different city’s locals and that changed my home package also.

2. Works well

   Posted by Bruce on Apr 22nd 2019

   I already had Dish service with a wally. I put it outside on a cardboard box and connected it. It was well packaged, but when I removed it from the box it seemed to rattle. Must be normal, because it took about 15 minutes to find satellites and run the set-up before I was watching TV.
   I didn't give 5 stars because I am going to roof mount it on my RV. A Dish representative told me the front had to face South. Which is not marked on the dome. She said the cable connection was the back. That did not make sense to me because I would not always be able to park with the dome facing South. I then called Winegard, that representative told me that the unit goes 360 degrees. Which makes much more sense. So I think the descriptions and instructions could be more clear!!

3. Playmaker survives flood

   We had a flash flood in the RV park we were at that. We had to go to higher ground ASAP and had very little warning. We only had time to undo septic, water and electric. Our Dish Playmaker was left to bob in the three feet flood waters for 24 hours, until the water receded. We both assumed it would be toast. Can not believe it worked perfectly the next day. Absolutely shocked. You don't want any other satellite for your RV. Indebted to you guys at Dish. Thanks for making such a great product.

4. I love it.

   About time I purchased a satellite for RVing. Early morning while preparing breakfast and watching whatever I wanted was nice.

8. Works in at least 8 states

   I took this along on a cross country trip in an RV. My RV is wired for an external dish so all I had to do at each location was connect the single 75ohm cable to the Playmaker. i used the dish for my RV app on iphone to know which side of the rv to put the playmaker. My dish receiver is a VIP211k which also has an Off the Air tuner. Perhaps other receivers are faster at populating the menu, but by the time everything else was set up the TV was working.
   
   The picture is superb, same as home, and is a far cry from the fuzzy cable at nearly all RV parks.
