I have VuQube now and its only 5 bucks for the extra receiver.

Big are you doing dish or directv?

vu qube works with both, as i understand

only three things i don't like about vuqube is
1st is the $700 ($629 if you find it now sale) just for the dish.
2nd is the lag time when you channel surf going from one sat to the other like the old C-BAND 10' dish
3rd will not work with my dvr setup (it can't record) from both sat's at the sametime, like my dish can.

so ur saying you would be better getting a direct tv dish on a tripod?

check this out http://www.classadrivers.com/phpBB2/...478&highlight= our setup in on page 2-3.

vuqube is find it just will not work with the dvr that i have and if you don't mind the lag time 20-60 secs and i myself i can think of other things i can use the money for.

I bought a new computer for the truck last week (it'll be here on Monday). So, since I went to a regular computer, I needed to get a new monitor as well (I used a 17" display on the laptop before). So, I just got a 22" widescreen LCD. All I can say is "OMG!!!"

At 1440x900 resolution, I can sit 6 feet away from the monitor and read the web page.

Can't wait to put it in the truck.

after the first 2 answer to this question-i'm confused. I drive a FL Columbia with a standard(i guess) pole antenna for the Tv.I have a 15" LCD tv-will I need a different type antenna to pick up the digital broad-cast signal or a converter box-i know the tv is digital.Appreciate any info

A standard antenna will pick up the digital signal. If the tv does not have a digital tuner, you'll need a converter box or a new tv.
