winegaurd travlr

Wow, way too much wind load I suspect. It is heavy and no way I would consider it.

i'll be sending it back then since I can't find a ladder mount and it is heavy. it does get good reviews and it supports dvr features and or two t.v's as far as programming from two different satellites

No! The travler is designed for solid roof mounting. If you want a ladder mount take it back and get one of the small domes.

thanks don that's what i'm gonna do i'm looking at domes now as the unit has to go on the back of a semi :C

Have you looked at it? Are you talking about the Trav'ler that automatically finds the satellite? I see no possibility of mounting it on a RV ladder if that is what you mean. It is heavy, the antenna is large and needs a lot of room to rotate as it searches for a signal. You would need a platform extending at least three or 4 feet out from the ladder unless you tried aligning it manually which defeats the purpose.

Love my Trav'ler!

What are you wanting to mount it on?
On my second "Taveler", would not go back to the "carry out"! Or the cube!
On fivers, for some reason the mfg does not like to mount them on the front!
That is where they belong! Most spaces are not as over grown on the front of a backin.
We just as for open to the S.W. So we can get the sat?
JIMO!!!!!

yea iv'e seen it. it looks heavy but I didn't think it was that heavy. I have to mount it on the ladder on the back of my semi truck because of the darn air deflector on the roof http://www.winegard.com/images/travlerWeb.jpg
