Orby TV Installation and Equipment

Equipment

A dish about 27 inches across and 18 inches high. (dish needs a spot with a clear view to the south)
one Orby TV receiver or DVR for each TV where you want our service.

Installation

If you rent your Orby TV equipment, there’s no charge for installation. If you choose to purchase your equipment, the standard installation price for one room is $150 and the installation cost for each additional room is $50 (plus the cost of the additional receiver/DVR). But by purchasing your equipment and installation, you see dramatic savings on your monthly service. If you get our $40 package that’s your ENTIRE monthly expense for up to four receivers/DVRs. Taxes are included and there are, no extra room fees, no local TV fees, and no sports fees. And if you ever want to take a break from that $40 monthly payment, just use our convenient Orby TV app to take yourself off autopay. When your prepaid month ends, you’ll still have a free local TV like ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX and the Orby TV on-screen guide. Then whenever you’re ready to resume paid Orby TV service, you can do that with no reconnection fees through the Orby TV app.

Can I “pause” my service if I go out of town?

If you purchase your Orby TV equipment, at any time you can choose to not renew your service. When your paid month ends, your service will be paused until you choose to resume. If you rent your equipment you must keep your service paid for 24 months from your initial activation. After that, you can choose to not renew.

If I want to change to a cheaper package, can I do that?

Yes, at any time you can schedule a change to a lower-priced package or removal of service using your online account. The change will happen at the end of your prepaid period.
