Good day today. Got Dish installed, well mostly...finished washer/ dryer install and started back splash. This was our way of getting Sat Dish up on the roof. More steps toward full timing next March. Woo Hoo!Moderator edit to re-size picture to forum limit of 640px maximum width.

Hey, need a few more pictures of the install and it completed ! Congrats on being on becoming a full-timer soon!

Definitely, all necessary equipment for fulltiming.Can't live comfortably without our DirecTV dish and w/d. Both used daily.

Reception is going to suck under that roof

Not sure when the install was done but he/she is installing a older (pre-2013) SK-3005 for DirecTV. That coach would not need the separate base plate but it could be used if you were a belt and suspenders kind of guy/gal. Having installed nearly 200, I never once use the separate base.

Nice job, did you install the base plate or mount directly to roof?
Which traveler ? Dish, DTV?

Hi, yes, we used the plate to be safe.
And as always Satellite Bill is correct. It is a DTV SK-3005 converted to SWM type for HD, again a big THANK YOU to Bill.
Just started last weekend with the plate, the dish and part of the cables this weekend.
Hope to finish it next weekend.
Oh, and it's a we ( he and she ) install. :B
