Directv Winegard Trave’ler
Review by
Movie Nut
This Satellite antenna is the perfect update to those antenna systems that were OEM supplied in the last 10 years on motorhomes. Winegard hit a homerun with this product. Dyers got this unit to me in a timely manner for a fraction of what it would have cost me st the RV stores. Their expert advice and help made this a seamless upgrade. Thanks Dyers!

This is the best price on the internet. I almost ordered with another seller. It was the same price. The other competitor wanted 80.00 for shipping. I was told the weight qualified for freight shipping. Dyers was the same price and shipping was only 9.99. No brainer. Went with Dyers and I'm glad I did. Shipping was fast the product came with all accessories and installation was a breeze! Will do business again with Dyers.

Wanted to replace my old in-motion dome and have heard noting but good comments on the Trav'ler.
I have almost stopped looking at the competition when ordering RV stuff. Dyers always seems to have what I want and at the cheapest price! Their customer service is also outstanding!
The hardest part of the install was fishing the power cable through the roof into the front AV compartment. Didn't want to drill additional holes in the roof so we spent a couple hours snaking the power cable through the ceiling maze on my Travel Supreme. Did have to cut the power plug off and reattach after running the wires. The satellite mounted very easily as my roof is fiberglass and flat. It took a few minutes to figure out how to connect the different control boxes and SWM to the Box Of Many Buttons (BOMB). Eventually got everything in its proper place and all TVs work great! (Can anyone tell me why I have 3 TVs in a 350 sq. ft. motorhome and only one in a 4,000 sq. ft. house?) :-)

Best value - lowest price & quick delivery
Review by
Bamafanrver
Just bought a new Winnebago Vista in June and immediately started looking for a HD satellite dish for Directv. Dyer's had the best price that I found, and with the low cost 2-day delivery, the value is hard to top. Echoing other reviewers, the unit is a bit heavy to lug up a ladder to the roof. Locating the dish almost dead center front to back and side to side on my Vista did not require the additional cost of the mounting plate, as that area of the roof is almost flat. The 30' of cabling was more than adequate to reach the front of the RV, where Winnebago conveniently placed a decal marking the exact spot to drill the cable entry hole.
A couple of things would have made the installation simpler: 1). Dyer's could provide a list of recommended sealants for different roof types (had to contact and order the recommended type from my dealer). 2). Installation video produced by Winegard or Dyer's.
Overall, I am very pleased with the product and Dyer's RV.

Review by
Observer
As mentioned in other reviews the unit is heavy and awkward when trying to lift it on the roof. However a grandson, who is a football player, made the job a lot easier. The other comment is that I felt that the 1", #8 sheet metal screws were less than adequate to mound a unit, with a large reflector, that will be tested by the wind when it is in it's operating position. So, I used 1/4" lag screws and it feels very secure.

Absolute Must If You Want HD DirecTV
Review by
Lizard
This product performs perfectly as designed except through heavy tree cover. After much research Dyers provided the best price and their delivery was free and superfast. I strongly recommend purchase of the "Winegard Support Mounting Plate" it will make your install easier and much more secure (I think the "Winegard Support Mounting Plate is priced too high but it is a must). If you do purchase the "Winegard Support Mounting Plate" you do "NOT" need to purchase the "Winegard Roller Wear Plate". Ensure you install with plenty of lap sealant. I mounted this and the Trav'ler on the rear area on the roof of a 272RLIS Forest River Salem Hemisphere. I did "NOT" cut a hole in the roof for the operating and CAT cable. I used PVC pipe and ran the cables through the pipe from the Trav'ler to the rear of my RV, down the back hooked to the ladder. (PVC was a short piece 90 degrees off of the Trav'ler to a 90 degree elbow then a long piece of pipe to rear of RV then another 90 degree elbow and another long piece of pipe along and hooked to the ladder with the open end about 2 inces above the bumper). I ran the system control cable into the wireing harness under the bumper. As for the CAT cable I ran that to the splicer that came with the Trav'ler and then into the Satellite In for the main living area on the rear of my RV. I then ran a second CAT cable from splicer to the "Park" in connenction. Must use the satellite in for the SWM to work and send power back to system. Again a great purchase.

Review by
sure2rain
Dyers provided a great price and fast delivery. I also ordered the wear plate which was missing a couple of the mounting screws. Contacted Dyers and they had the screws shipped to me.
Installation was easy. Most difficult part of the install is deciding where to run the wires which wasn't a problem, just a little anxiety when putting a hole in the roof.
I used the Trav'ler for the first time last week and I can't tell you how nice it was to simply power-up the unit and let it do its thing while I finished the rest of my site setup. Nice to have the ability to receive Hi-Def Direct channels which I wasn't able to do with the VueQube which is also a nice unit and will be used as a backup if satellite reception using the Trav'ler is blocked.

Review by

over all I was very pleased with this dish. everything went according to the installation instructions. the only problem came when I tried to get the tv on. What they don't tell you is that you need to re-program your receiver if you are using a receiver that you already own. If your not familiar with this process you will need help. I called Winegard on Saturday morning and all lines were busy. Big surprise. I left my call back info and to my surprise got a call within 30 minutes. the person I spoke with was very pleasant and had me up and running in about 10 minutes or less. love the system. works great but they should include instructions on setting up your receiver. Enjoy yours!!

Replaced my SD version of this unit with the HD version. Same mount holes, same size wiring bundle, & really fast delivery by Dyers ( second day but only paid for standard ground). Unit works well and the Winegard product support was excellent on my only enquires.

Great product but poorly packaged for shipping
Review by
Dragrider
After all is said and done, this seems like a fine product. I used this to replace an old King Dome antenna after I had upgraded my CRT TVs with LCD HD TVs.
Unfortunately, Winegard does not package this unit well enough for mishandling during shipping. Mine was shipped directly from Winegard's warehouse in Southern California and it was dropped off at the house on it's side. Opening the box up I found the relector damaged, as I'm sure many others who have ordered this antenna have found. The packaging was clearly meant for the unit to be shipped on it's bottom with nothing stacked on top. I'd give it five stars if the shipping packaging had been better designed.
Of course none of this was Dyer's fault and Dyer's was extremely helpful in connecting me with Winegard to get a replacement reflector ordered. And to Winegard's credit, they were very responsive in replacing the damaged part. Just to be sure that nothing else was damaged, I tested the antenna out before I took it up onto the RV roof. Getting it up there was the hardest part of the installation as it was heavy for my 70 year old body. Otherwise, no issues installing it.

I installed the satellite dish, mounting plate and wiring in about three hours (and during one of our notable heat waves of 105 degrees).
The mounting plate is highly recommended. It is predrilled making the overall mounting of the dish to the RV roof much easier while protecting the rubber membrane. My RV (2013 Redwood 36 RL 5th wheel) has aluminum roof trusses on sixteen inch centers. I positioned the plate such that the plate was over two of the trusses. I also purchased the small dish roller landing plate however that part is not required when using the dish mounting plate. The electronics checked out on the first power up. The instructions are easy to follow and guide the owner very effectively. There is also a video on YouTube that is recommended to watch for becoming familiar with installation requirements.

Took off a Kingdome in-motion satellite . A local RV shop installed the Winegard for $125.00. I got the new Genie from Directv and now I can watch/record 5 different channels at the same time. Just like at home. Dyer's had the dish to me very fast as I was leaving for a trip. I couldn't be happier! Great picture quality with no rain fade.

Review by

This is one great satellite dish receiver. It works exactly as advertised. Push one button and in a short time you are watching in glorious HD, all the DirecTV channels you get at home. After having struggled with aiming a standard definition dish, I really appreciate the ease with which this unit automatically locks on to the best signal. Could not be more satisfied with the purchase.

I absolutely love this new dish from Winegard. It is pricey, but it is just what we were looking for. And I actually think that it works so well, that it justifies the price. The dish arrived in a matter of days from Dyer's with no damage. All the DirecTV channels are available, and the HD picture is amazing. The best part about the dish, is that it works just like our tv's at home. Completely seamless!
