  • Really disappointing. Buyer beware. UPDATED January 2023 Outstanding Performance
Style: Antenna With Receiver
After setting up and testing the system in my driveway multiple times I was very pleased with this purchase. With the first camping trip the satellite worked well for two days. On the third day it would not work at all... I kept getting an on screen message "cannot locate signal, check all connections and call Dish." After several calls to Dish and checking all connections, re-booting several times I finally gave up and waited until returning home. I made several attempts to get through to Winegard and once I finally got through the tech person said to check the voltage at both the receiver and dish ends of the coax. I was showing a range of 13 to 19 volts and the system would work about half the time. I strongly suspect a bad receiver. The Winegard tech said I was covered under the two year warranty but since the problem was intermittent if I were to return the unit to the factory they may or may not be able to fix the problem unless they could duplicate the same issue I was having at home. After replacing my new coax cable with another new coax cable when I test the system I get the "cannot locate signal" message immediately followed by the dish working correctly then flashing back to the "cannot locate" message and then back to programming. Quite frankly, having spent $300 for a system that works intermittently and cannot get decent customer service from either Dish or Winegard I would not recommend buying this product with the Wally receiver. If you do buy, make sure everything is working correctly BEFORE the 30 day Amazon return window closes. UPDATE 6-10-2018 Upgraded to three stars since my problems seem to be resolved. I called Dish Customer Service and finally connected with a very capable young man who spent 2 1/2 hours on the phone with me and checked what seemed to be almost every test in the book. The software was seriously out of date and one glitch is the button labelled "Upgrade my Software" doesn't work and only tells you that whatever version you have is already current and up to date... Wrong!! As of 6-9-2018 the current software version is U438. There are 3 ways to update: 1.) if you are already a Dish customer take the receiver inside and hook it up to your home satellite wiring. The receiver will update at 1 AM or so automatically. 2.) Clear the memory by unplugging the receiver, disconnect the coax to the dish and plug the receiver back in to reboot through the whole process. Of course the dish won't find anything because the coax is disconnected but the memory will be cleared. Then connect the coax back to the dish and reboot. After the reboot, and assuming you are receiving something, use the remote to turn off power to the receiver which puts it into standby mode where you will watch the dancing "tips" square. After a couple of minutes the receiver will begin a software download and install. 3.) As in step #1, if you are not a home Dish customer, leave the system plugged in overnight for the automatic update and download. To see what version software you have now, and to confirm if anything has changed, push the Home button on the remote three times and look for the software version in the middle of the page. If you have U438 (now U802 as of July 8, 2019) you will be current. Since I am by no means an expert about any of this I urge you to call Dish technical support and have them walk you through everything. Don't waste your time with Winegard. I upgraded to 3 stars because I am willing to give Dish technical support 5 stars but I am not 100% sure that the software is perfect and may still have future issues. Overall this process should be automatic but at least I have learned there are answers to our problems with the Wally. My confidence is restored. UPDATE 9-4-2018 My system is slowly improving with time. The software has updated a little but still uses the U438 designation. The reboot takes about 10 minutes or less now however the guide doesn't always download and I have to repeat the process occasionally. In the diagnostics area the "Upgrade my Software" button now actually works where the system will reboot on its own and try to find anything current. I am still having problems getting the complete loss of signal screen for one second followed by programming for one second then the signal loss screen then programming which flashes back and forth like a neon sign. I found that if I quickly use the channel up button to change channels when the screen flashes to the program for one second the receiver will change to that channel. When I then use the channel down button everything seems to work OK after that. As Dish will tell you on their website if you do not use the Wally receiver for two weeks or so the receiver goes into sleep mode and you will not receive programming until the receiver is reauthorized. One great improvement is to download the MY DISH app to your phone because you can now 'wake up' the receiver without having to make a phone call or go online to the website. In the app scroll to the bottom to find the Dish Outdoors tab, find and click the reauthorize button... works like magic! UPDATE 10-20-2018 Three more week long trips and finally this system is working reliably. Works well using my generator or solar powered inverter and on-board batteries. I am still getting the flashing 'no signal' message followed by a working program but I simply push the channel up button to change channel and then come back to my original channel and all is working well. Start-up takes about 8 minutes or so. My only wish at this point is that Dish would include a memory for the receiver so once power is disconnected the receiver and dish would remember the last setting if nothing has changed in the interim. Another useful option would be to offer this system in 12 volt only so the inverter would not be necessary. UPDATE: July 8, 2019 After being in storage for six months I reactivated my Wally receiver on the Dish website and turned on the system. Once the boot had completed the first thing I did was go into the diagnostic/tools area and hit the button labeled "Upgrade my Software". It promptly told me my current version of U448 from last December was up-to-date and would not reboot and look for anything newer. To clear the memory I then unplugged the receiver, disconnected the coax and plugged the receiver back in. As expected the process only went as far as giving me a message to "check all connections". USING THE REMOTE I then turned off the Wally receiver, re-connected the coax to the dish and waited while watching the 'dancing tips' square... After about 5 minutes the receiver started a new download since the memory had been cleared. In all it took about 20 - 30 minutes and upgraded everything. Do NOT turn off the power or unplug while upgrading. When the screen returned back to the dancing 'tips' square I then turned the system back on and checked the software version number: it is now current at U802. 9/14/2019 Repeated the exact same procedure as listed above, current software version is U806. Dish works perfect. UPDATE January 2023 Continues to work well with no issues. I have added a hard drive which enables the DVR function and a wireless adaptor to bring in Netflix & on-demand features. ... show more

  • Works great!
Style: Antenna With Receiver
This works great! Used it after a severe storm and had TV. Bad thing is, DISH seems to be losing many channels I liked. I used it on a monthly basis, pay as you go. No problems. Dish customer service was excellent when I had a connection issue. They probably have upgrades on this by now.

  • Awesomeness!
Style: Antenna With Receiver
This is a review of the bundle that included the Winegard PL-7000R DISH Playmaker, with Wally HD Satellite Receiver (and Winegard TR-1518 Satellite Tripod Mount) from Amazon. One of the big reasons I went with a DISH subscription in our house was because I wanted the option of having a portable satellite dish for camping. Let me say, this is Awesome! The instructions were pretty good and set up was mostly painless. Before traveling with it I decided to unbox it for a trial run in the back yard, and I would suggest everyone does this. You will need to contact DISH once you have everything connected, so doing it from the convenience of my back yard was a good idea. I used the Winegard app on my phone to locate the satellites and set up the dish with an unobstructed view. I hooked the dish to the receiver with the provided 25' cable and the receiver to the TV with the provided HDMI cable. I started the setup and called DISH's 1-800 number to activate. They talked me through the set up and activation, which included a ~20 minute software upgrade for the Wally receiver. Once set up, I had all the satellite and local channels that I have in the house. Since I already had a DISH TV subscription, the cost of using the Playmaker is similar to having an additional receiver, which is $7 per month. With the pay-as-you-go plan, I can turn it on and off (by calling DISH's 1-800 number, and only pay $.23 per day for the days that I use it. ... show more

  • Works pretty well but still expensive for what you get.
Style: Antenna With Receiver
It was pretty easy to setup though I did have to call tech support when the installation stalled in the middle. Tech support person was very knowledgeable and got it working quickly. The aiming at the eagles was very easy after downloading on my phone. I did think it was pretty expensive for what you get but I cut the cord awhile back and this seemed to be the cheapest option for some tv when camping without good internet access. ... show more

  • Buyer beware! Chose DISH services carefully!
Style: Antenna With Receiver
We finally had the opportunity to use this device. Even with 10 pounds of weight, there were reception issues. The programming available from Dish (we ordered Basic with locals and Starz) was not a complete package and unless you enjoy a majority of “QVC” type channels, it’s not worth the 90+ dollars a month. When I called their automated system to cancel (4 days before the next automated payment would come out) THEIR system told me my service is cancelled until I contact them to reinstate. THEIR system told me “no further action on your part is necessary”. What it didn’t say was to cancel my autopay!! They charged me the next month (4 days later) and refuse to refund it! I will NEVER again do business with a company that finds cheating their customers an acceptable business practice! ... show more

  • Dish playmaker, PL7000R
Style: Antenna With Receiver
For starters, getting this was a splurge, a jealously purchase (tailgating) and out of character for me. The real reason I bought it, is because my girlfriend’s daughter has dishTV, and it only cost $7.00 (that’s right) extra per month. She agreed to add my receiver, which was very sweet, but I digress. Right out of the box, it looked like quality stuff, easy to understand, and in about 5 mins, I had the antenna in my yard, and wally and television hooked up. The user manual is easy to use, it set itself up and did updates quickly, I called the activation number, in about 25 minutes I was watching crystal clear HD TV on my porch. I was so worried it was gonna be a tech nightmare, but it wasn’t. To curb my suspicion, I packed it all up, set it back up again, and in about 10 mins, I was watching TV again. Great product, and highly recommended. Our uses will be for our camper, and tailgating. ... show more
