RoadTrip SDi - In-Motion Satellite System

BUMP

What the OP is trying to say is that the Road Trip works "in motion". The problem is sitting still the mechanism will not "sleep" on the signal. He has to immediately power down when it finds a signal otherwise it winds up and does a restart over and over.

I recognized these symptoms. I know it seems backwards but I can enjoy satellite when parked only when I switch off the 12 VDC supply as soon as it gets a signal. Driving down the road my wife can enjoy Criminal Minds with only the normal interruptions.

You are likely suffering from the issues created when Dish changed the way they send their programming and this is causing issues with the older domes for both DirecTV and Dish since they both use(d) the 110 and 119 satellites as well as the 101 required for DirecTV reception. What makes you think it is a minor board issue? Due to these changes, it's unlikely the dome will ever work again in-motion unless you can actually see and identify and issue on the board(s) inside the control box. The other bit of bad news is that Winegard never supplied any of there electronics to dealers or resellers so the only electronics source is Winegard so if they say they don't have them or will not provide them it is unlikely you would find one somewhere else.

Yes, DirecTv

Mine, of the same age, is doing the same thing. DirecTv

Are you trying to use this antenna with Dish or DirecTV?
