Foldbak, if you stay in the lower 48, satellite works great. I have had both Dish and DirecTV. I ditched Direct after not getting local channels while away from our area. I have the G3, which works with either Direct or Dish. With Dish, you get HD on the small dome unlike DirecTV (except Travl’r gets HD on either). At this time, at least where we camp, StarLink is the only option. If you have cell service, you can have internet with the right provider. In Goshen last year, T-Mobile had no data coverage. In Alaska, we have had internet every spot with StarLink. Plus, like Dish Outdoor, you can turn it on and off as needed. As Mike mentioned, with Dish Outdoor, you can change the zip code on your phone. Once you add it as an additional receiver, you have to call. A little bit of a hassle but not bad. But, none of them work in Alaska. Another few weeks and we’ll get satellite back.
