I'm going back to full timing in the fall and may just get the roof mounted spinning widget antenna!
These days I like to keep things as simple as can be and what you just explained sounds like a real pain in the behind..
I can understand why full timers would buy a trav'ler or carryout. But for us working folks.. That's expensive for one or two weeks a year.
I'm not much for learning curves when I finally leave on my vacation. I read about a guy who through his dish into his neighbors camp spot after 2 hours of fiddling..
If there was a good write up on how to do this on the cheap, I would..
If I buy DISH or DirectTV for my home, is a 1000.5 dish and digital signal meter and the DishPointer Pro Android app for aiming the only additional hardware I need? Which system has aiming software built into the receiver?
Thanks!
