Roadtrip HD for Directv

[jandered]

I was wondering if there are any plans for a Directv HD upgrade for the roadtrip inmotion sat. dish.

Good morning jandered -

Unfortunately it is currently impossible to receive DirecTV HD on a domed satellite product. This is a limitation in their system after switching satellite bands.

I am aware of the change Directv made and I know the roadtrip can't recieve that band. I was wondering if Winegard had plans to upgrade or make an add on package so that band can be recieved?
Thanks,
John

It's unfortunately something that is just not possible. There are no domed systems and no in-motion systems that can receive that band. The Winegard TRAV'LER is capable of receiving DirecTV HD but that band cannot be reached while in-motion.

Thats unfortunate, The inmotion part of it is not important even if there were plans to upgrade the stationary RoadTrip would be good, I could live with that. Afterall I am a football fan and Dish network is out of the question.
