As long as the dish is in good shape then it will still be usable. The Sonicview receiver is very old. It will only get some of the DVB-S channels still up there so no DVB-S2 with it. Really should be upgraded to a modern one if you want to get all you can. I would recommend one of these.I have a10 ft dish and a sonicview sv-360 premium. Are they still viable?
