Direct TV 18 in. Dish and H24 Receiver Capability

Thanks for the prompt responses. I now know what to expect when I do a trial setup before our upcoming trip. I have a slim dish and a hefty tripod to mount it on and have actually had it working one time in our back yard with all satellites required for HD and local channels but it was tedious to set up even using a digital signal meter to verify all transponders were working. I certainly did not feel very confident that we were ready for taking it to the field.
