Dish Receivers - Anyone using a wally?

Anyone out there using a Wally (or Wallys) for both home and RV? I have the VIP series of receivers and like some benefits of the Wally, including size and RF Remote. I don't like that it doesn't have a coaxial signal output since my house is wired with coax for additional TV viewing. I would probably use some kind of signal modulator to convert to coax for that. My questions are 1) what is your overall impression of the Wally for this purpose, and 2) does anyone know the watt draw of the Wally, both powered and turned off?

Thanks for any help.
  • No. I mean Wally. It is pretty new. 2oldman, I have searched for Wally several times and read many posts about it. I know how to search. However, I have not found the answer to my specific questions. I see many posts that people have it or are considering it. I see NO posts on how satisfied they are with it. I have looked at the dish site and have looked at the tech specs. I DO NOT see power usage information. It seems that the few times I try to ask for some help from other members on here there is always someone ready to criticize.
