No, this product is not in competition with DISH, but it being sold to DISH customers as an alternative antennae, as well as with the space scanner which will Allow DISH customers to also be Primestar and USSB customers simultaneously; so I suppose you might say there is some element of competition there, but the people at FutureTrak feel it to be more of a compliment, as they cater to the mobile and marine markets, and they feel those customers can both afford and desire to be multiple satellite provider subscribers.

The new flat array antennae purports to be able to track these competing systems simultaneously, with the ease of a click.

I intend to begin a thread devoted to FutureTrak this week, but haven't completed my initial thoughts on how to word the topic.
