SK-1000 TRAV’LER DISH NETWORK 1000 and Bell TV

While industry-wide dome satellite antennas may only view one satellite at a time and therefore limit the programs that can be watched on other TVs, the Winegard TRAV’LER antennas view multiple satellites at the same time for a viewing experience just like home, providing the ability to get all programming on all TVs at the same time for maximum viewing pleasure.

Unlike other mobile satellite antennas, the TRAV’LER antenna uses approved and certified home reflectors for superior signal strength and diminished rain fade.

Since the TRAV’LER antenna views multiple satellites at the same time, there is no need for the TRAV’LER antenna to toggle between satellites. 

Each TRAV’LER antenna is designed to work with specific providers. The TRAV’LER antennas work with DIRECTV, DISH, Bell TV, and Shaw Direct. The DIRECTV SWM TRAV’LER antenna is compatible with satellites 99°, 101°, and 103° for DIRECTV SD/HD programming. The DISH/Bell TV TRAV’LER antenna is compatible with satellites 110°, 119°, 129° for DISH Western Arc SD/HD programming and satellites 82° and 91° for Bell TV SD/HD programming. The Shaw Direct TRAV’LER antenna is compatible with satellites 107° and 111° for Shaw Direct SD/HD programming.

The DISH/Bell TV TRAV’LER antenna is not compatible for Eastern Arc in multi-satellite mode. It may be capable of reading satellites 61.5°, 72.7° and 77° in manual mode depending on the manufacture date of the antenna.

Yes, all TRAV’LER antennas can receive both standard and HD programming from the respective satellite service providers (programming sold separately).
