We also have a Carryout - I won't say that my experience has been stellar, but when it works right it's very good.
When we were in the northeast this summer I opened it up and changed some switches that caused it to use DISH's eastern arc. Those satellites are higher and more eastern in the sky and easier to get than the 110, 119, 129 birds. In fact, when I called to update my locals while in Hershey, PA the Dish guy told me that I wouldn't be able to get the local channels in HD because they are on 61.5. I told him I was already on it and he was quite impressed.
I stayed on the eastern arc until I got to Tennessee.
