Re: [A/S] Satellite



Hi Verna,

Sure I will.  I have a Winegard automatic satellite......  I got it at 
Camping World... with my 10% discount and installation it was approx 
$1,000.00.  Worth every penny......

Here it is:  http://www.campingworld.com/browse/skus/index.cfm?skunum=18568

I had mine installed in New Braunfels, TX.... 

I get to a campground, making sure I'm not parked where a tree will block the 
dish.... I hook up my electric, go inside and tell the dish where I am and 
tell it to start search.....

I go back out, hook up the water...... go back in and I have a picture (c:  
Heaven.

I have Directv service.  With the Livingston TX address I get east & west 
networks, which is great..... 

I would never want to not have the auto dish.... I think if I were buying 
again I would get the KVH system.........

Go to Sat tv antennas... the one at the top is the one.... It retails for 
$1500, pricier, but what I like is the weatherproof dome.... in high winds 
mine will move and has lost the picture a few times.... not a big issue, but 
the KVH is in a weather protected dome.... and you never have to worry about 
forgetting to lower it.  I never forgot, but it could happen.

Whichever, you will LOVE the auto system!!!
