satellite dish and receiver
Hi....a newbie here. I want to purchase a portable satellite antenna and receiver for my new to me Winnie Sightseer. Looking at the Tailgater system as well as a Winegard. Have seen mixed reviews...

There are some expert dish pointers here who can get their manual dish pointed in ten or fifteen minutes, most of the time. The Tailgater gets itself pointed in ten minutes each and every time, while I'm already working on my second Brewski.
If ease of use is your primary goal, the Tailgater or the Pathway are the way to go. I have a tailgater and I'm running it at the end of 150 feet of cable, three times the maximum recommended length. That gives me a LOT of options for finding a signal without moving my camp.
A torrential rainstorm will interupt the signal, although I'm told it will do that on a standard dish also.
