No experience with dish network in Hawaii. I wish,,,, I mean hasn't everyone installed in Hawaii??? I mean yes I have,,,,well I tried once but my truck sank once I got outta Cali. Then I hadda ditch my belt about half way into the swim, it was draggin me down. By the time I got to Hawaii all I had was my wallet, which was full,,,,,,of Sailboat fuel (thats air to you hacks) because, I was a contractor for DISH!!!!!
