plural dishowners
- communicationsA person who owns a satellite dish.
Many U.S. dishowners have purchased (and received) the HDD-200 from Canadian retailers, as they received the first shipments. The HDD is now available from U.S. retailers, but the price is much higher than in Canada after currency exchange rates are applied.
