Has anyone tried the VuQube (portable satellite system)???
ADVERTS 1
Hi guys. I was just wondering if any of you have tried VuQube? It is a portable satellite system / mobile dish type of thing that claims to work with either DISH or DirecTV. I was looking into getting something like this for vacation and taking it to our cabin, but wanted to know if anyone had tried it out and what they think of it. Thanks!

I met with the company at Team Summit last year and they told me they wanted to send me one to review for the site...
I never h eard from them after that.
Too bad I am sure a lot of SatelliteGuys members would have been interested in this product.Scott

It only picks up one satellite location. Pretty much useless for either Dish or Direct.
VIP722 + VIP222
Dish 500 + Modified Superdish for 129 + Modified Super Dish for 61.5 + DPP44
Sony KDF-42A10 42"LCD HDMI
Mitsubishi VS-50111 50" Rear Projection
Home Theather - To much to list

From what I remember it switches between satellites (takes a few seconds for the dish to move)
