Pay as you go satellite

The Dish model of the Winegard Trav'ler is another automatic dish that's limited to the western arc satellites only, and has the same aiming limitations as all roof mounted dishes when on a site with large trees. We prefer using a much lower cost portable tripod mounted dish that can be used to receive either arc and receives all three satellites in the selected arc. Assembling and aiming the tripod and dish usually takes me no more than 15 minutes, fast enough that I don't find even doing it daily a hassle. I use a phone app to find a good aiming location on the site for the dish, and a low cost signal meter to dial it in.
