Lots of suggestions. Some good some not so good. Over the years i have tried probably all of the gadgets on the market. What finally works for me is two items. First is an Align-A-Site, which is permentantly mounted to the dish and does not require that you try and level the tri pod as the bubbles are on the tool along with a compass. This gets me real close. Then I connect my Birdog satellite meter, turn it on and set it for the bird I want. This gets me peak signal without ever going inside or yelling back and forth while DW is watching the signal strength on the TV. You can buy a HD antenna from a lot of places on the internet. Including a good tri pod, some coax cable and your trady to go. Just remember if you wand SWM technology you will need 120VAC on all the time. My portable dish is non SWM so when dry camping i can connect it and still have HD programming. My new root top antenna is SWM is is powered when we are connected to shore power. Best of both worlds.
