Dish antenna ideas

We use the portable HD Pathway X2 and really like it.. It took some getting use to, but after we did, all was good.

Like others, I have 50' of satellite cable that I use and that allows me to place it to get a better signal if in a heavy tree area..

I DO NOT fulltime, so I only take it with me on certain trips...

We use the portable. and NEVER had any luck with wineguard units. Had 3 of them over the years... ended up returning them every time. Good Luck and Happy Camping !!

Rooftop you can always set up a portable. Not all other options are HD comparable.

3.5 full time years with roof top. Love it!

This one is easy for me being a full timer for 8 years and having a Dish Tailgater They have a 50 ft cable and you can easily move them around OR on the roof/Slideout to get to them in the clear to find the Southern Sky BUT there was a few times I was so deep in the woods nothing works,I always try to pick my spots at the Campgrounds that have Some clearing

Having two roof mounted Auto seek SAT antenna's(in Motion and stationary)...I can't tell you how many times, unless I'm thinking about it, I park where I cannot get a signal(tree's-obstacles). It happens when you want to be in the shade...I always carry a portable dish for such instances.

So if you don't want to think about this all the time when backing into a site....go portable!!!

I prefer the set-out, because we like to park in shade if possible. Gives me a lot more options on placement. But, lots of others think otherwise.

The standard comment on roof mount is parking near trees or other obstructions.
