A satellite dish is a fairly generic piece of equipment so they are likely to operate anywhere. The receiver is rather different. Some receivers are locked to single operators and will need to be receiving signals from that operator to work. Others can receive signals from any operator.

Satellite signals are transmitted from a satellite to a specified area. A US based broadcaster will generally aim to deliver signals to US locations only. Moving the dish and receiver to Another Country may result in no signal being obtained because the satellite footprint simply doesn't cover the new location. Other satellite broadcasts may be found with a different satellite but the encoded (premium) channels won't be seen as the encryption prevents viewing without a subscription.

There are options in most parts of the world but it's worth doing the research first before packing your satellite dish into your carry on luggage.

Does satellite radio work in inclement weather?

People who use satellite dishes for television reception are more apt to lose reception during inclement weather than someone who has a satellite radio. The difference is the dish and antenna. The dish is pointed in just one direction, while the antenna is omnidirectional. Because of this, those with satellite radios can still enjoy reception during inclement weather.
