Is there anyway i can get an automatic satelite dish for around 300 dolars?
If not, does anyone know how to set a manual dish up and what the coordinates of dish network satelites are? any help would be great aand thank you?

There is one for sale in the classifieds for $300, I have one I would sell for close to that but my distance would make shipping costs too high. If you google satellite pointing you should find the info. you need for your location.

The tailgater, a portable automatic runs $350 and works like a charm and is extremely easy to use. It works only with Dish Network. The little thing is easy to store and weighs about 10 lb. If HD is something you want this is your best bet for the least $$. One caveat, if you spend most of your time in The north east it won't pull in sat 129 and that's where most Dish HD channels reside. You will still get all the channels you subscribe to but in Standard def. My wife, who tends to get frustrated with my efforts to set up our manual dish is amazed how quickly I'm now able to set up.

If you are already a Dish Network subscriber you may be elgible to get them to "give" you a box. then buy either a cube or the dish tailgator auto antenna. I'm a dish subscriber and when i inquired about leasing or buying a box they offered to give me a box for FREE (not to keep forever). I have a KW antenna alreadfy mounted on my RV roof. Everything works pretty good. NO HD. So, I'm ordering one of their "tailgater cubs" They have only been out for a few weeks. several people i know have purchased on and they work great. Most bang as they say for tjhe buck.
