Purchased this because idiots at Dish Network sent a VIP211z receiver for the installer to put in my living room. News Flash: It has no place to plug in a phone line and will not receive the "Dish Home" channel 100. Owning my own receiver will save me a few bucks a month and the VIP211k has all the functions you will need. I paid my local installer to setup my 211k receiver-It's great. Now if someone was to come out with a "BackLit Buttons" remote control for the Dish Network that would be something!! I have to use a flashlight to see the control buttons in the dark. I guess the same idiots that approved the 211z receiver approved the IR remote control as well. Enough Said.

The Dish VIP211K is a very nice single receiver. It has a small footprint and lots of features. A nice feature is that it will pass through the off-air antenna signal when the receiver is off. Nice touch!

One of the best receivers for RV use that also can be used at home as a full function Dish receiver. It syncs quickly and will even work with in-motion dish compatible dishes. The 211k offers features and full connectivity that the other Dish receivers do not . The 211k will interface with HDMI, component, s-video, composite and coaxial outputs that are not included in the newer units. Plus you can add a small external HDD via the USB connector and you can schedule, record and play stored programming. I simply remove the unit from my RV bring it into the house and use it on one of my TV's, when I am out on the road I move it to my RV and can use it without additional monthly charges. About the only negative comment I could make about this unit is that it does run a little warm so install it in a location with decent ventilation.Read full review

This is a much better receiver than the 211Z. It has a tuner that allows use of broadcast signals. The guide even works on broadcast. There are more jack choices on the back which allow you to hook-up a second TV and even a third that will be standard def. RCA jacks for stereo hook-up. Last but not least the receiver works great in high def.

I chose the ViP 211K over the ViP 211z because of the option to use a co-ax or HDMI cable. I was initially told we would get our 'home' locals when we were traveling, but our dish (Tailgator) wasn't picking them up out of state. I contacted DishNetwork and gave them the ZIP code where we were camping. They pushed the area locals out to us. You have to call back when you return home, because it changes your home programming too. I would recommend this receiver to friends & family.
