. . . what is the current consensus on a roof mounted HD capable automatic dish?
A couple of years ago, I probably would have opted for a Winegard Traveler but is it necessary to spend that kind of money these days when they also offer the Pathway X1 and the Carryout G2?..............Any other models that I should also consider?
Is there any appreciable difference between the 3 models performance wise?
Winegard Travler- about $1200 (not installed)
- Essentially an automatic 1000.2 dish which can duplicate any home DISH install
- Western arc only dish (but 61.5 is available)
- Full DVR capabilities
Pathway X1 and X2- $400 (X1), $383 (X2)
- 2 receiver capability
- X1 = Western Arc only, X2 = Western & Eastern Arcs
- For use with VIP211 receiver (single tuner) only
- "Kinda-sorta" DVR capable
Carryout G2- $538
- 2 receiver capability
- Western Arc only
- For use with VIP211 receiver (single tuner) only
- "Kinda-sorta" DVR capable
