Thanks, the cable and lock is great. But what do you attach the other end of the cable to. Suggestions so far have been trees and landing gear. I have a hundred feet of coax cable, so can get it pretty far from the camper if needed to get out from under trees and such.
If you have to put it out a way from your camper, and you don't want it under trees because trees block the signal, ... well... any other suggestions?
I was think of a dog cork-screw stake in the ground with a cable cable and pad lock. At lest if kids wanted to fool around, they have to unscrew the dog cork screw? any further thoughts?
As others have said, I also use a light cable and padlock to attach to stabilizers, picnic table, trees, etc. I carry 150' of cable for boondocking in the mountains. If I'm not able to secure the dish, I just pick it up and put it inside the trailer when I leave. With such easy setup, it doesn't matter. If I'm in a tricky area shooting between trees, I mark the spot with a rock or limb.
