Of course it'll work. You'll have to get your Elevation, Azimuth and LNB Skew for that area.

Once you know the zip go here »dishpointer.com and find those settings and move the dish accordingly.

EDIT: You'll need to be pointed at the 110/119/129 birds. You can select 1000.2 in that drop down menu.

I thought I would have to use a dish 1000.4.

Either way DISH will swap it out.... and they don't make you take the dish anymore any ways you just intiate a mover thing and just take any receivers/DVR with you.

They will install new dish when you get there.

Yes then will work fine then, but you will not have your locals/the broadcast nets most likely.... doubt the AK spot beam is that wide.

Also don't plug the receiver into a land line or they will realized you moved it and might be a problem. You must have PPV do it by phone.

I think they have a set up for RV'rs but unless an extended vacation probably not worth going through all that.

Near enough a city you can probably get the broadcast nets OTA anyway.... even away as flat as most of AZ is.

Agreed--- ppv seems like such a waste

as far as I'm concerned they can remove the ppv from the guide. Much less stuff I have to scroll threw.

You should be able to pull in all the Phoenix locals (english and spanish) you need up near Westworld in Scottsdale. All the TV towers are located on South Mountain. Hopefully Camelback Mountain won't block them too much. Phoenix isn't as flat as Hayward See Profile would like you think.

I don't know what part of AZ Hayward thinks is flat. As a person born in AZ, I know how diverse AZ terrain really is. It's very mountainous.

I did selective cutting in the forest outside Flaggstaff in the later 70's and my knees can tell you that it sure as hell wasn't flat

Mountans is a plus if right side for distant reception.... FL flat as a pancake... no way MIA channels get down here without a 100 ft or more tower.... yet sat we MUST now take MIA (NOT)locals, vs distants we used to beable to get.... thanks for caving FCC and Congress
