We will be staying in a Florida campground this winter that furnishes cable. My question is how do you record the cable channels? What device do you use?
It depends on how much you value your TV viewing. I would recommend Direct TV (or dish). We have had Direct TV for over 12 years. They have come a long ways to accomodate the full time viewers.
We are full timers, and move several times a year. I have a regular, portable, satellite dish, with 100 feet of cable. It works out great. With a good view of the southern sky, I can have a signal in minutes. When getting a signal through the trees, it takes awhile, but I am getting used to it.
Call them up and they will come to your site and hook you up.

:h
That would work IF the OP already HAS Direct or Dish.
I personally would not want to get Direct or Dish if I didn't have it at home (IE had cable at home) since with both of those "services" you WOULD be LOCKED INTO A TWO YEAR CONTRACT :S
Direct and Dish are like cell phone plans when it comes to a contract so READ THE FINE PRINT BEFORE SIGNING ON.
Besides the campground in question HAS CABLE for FREE (IE as NO EXTRA CHARGE and the campground is not going to lower the price just because you don't use the cable).
If it is FREE then why not USE IT?
