So Easy - Unbelievable!
DISH TV came out today to install another receiver in our home. With our son and grandson returning home for a while, the extra receiver in the guest room is now in use, leaving none for the camper. So, got another one that can be moved from house to camper.
While the install guy was here, he got the bed room wired up ok, and talking to him, admitted I really wanted the extra receiver for the trailer. One thing led to another, and he told me about the Tailgater satellite dish as opposed to the clunky one we have on a tripod. The wife OK the purchase and so we got it.
Service guy installed the receiver in the extra bed room, then we migrated to the camper and he set up the receiver there too with the tailgater... OH MY, how simple and fast the tailgater was to set up!
After all this time struggling with compass readings, positions, angles, asmuths, angles, zip codes, locations, bla, bla, bla! ... just put it on the ground in a clear spot, plug in and (almost) literally "go!" The receiver has to set itself up, but the tailgater positions itself. Oh MY Should have done this a long time ago!
So, after the service guy left, I moved the tailgater around in the yard to practice setting up on my own. How sweet it is now!
The wife asked me if it was worth the cost, and I replied, "Well, I don't think I'll be cussing and swearing any more!" She said ... it was worth it then!
I'm just passing it along to everyone who's still doing it the old way, consider and let modern technology do it for you!
Happy Camping ... happy television watching too!
