A DISH receiver and antenna typically uses about 25 watts. The power consumption of a TV can vary by the size, from 60 watts for a 30 inch to 150 watts for a 50 inch.
Given that, a 200 watt inverter like the Go Power # 34282690 for a 12V system would be sufficient. If you wanted some reserve power for other electronics, you might be interested in a 400W inverter like # 34282692.
A wired remote is available as part # 34266886, a 25 foot cable is included.
The # 34282691 you'd looked at is for a 24V system, if that's what you have it would work well for you. The next step up for a 24V system would be the 400W # 34282693.
