[A/S] Portable Satellite dish

["Alan P. Owens" <apolaw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On Patti's recommendation I purchased the portable dish.  Was having 
problems with the stand etc... Just received mine this week.  I had called 
Camping World to order, but they were out of stock until mid 
October.  Found one at Stark Wholesale Electronics in Worcester, MA, 
$135.00 plus shipping of 12.56... Phone 508-0756-5752.

	Have just returned to work after 3 1/2 months on the road, NY, VT , to 
Lansing via Canada, then the Lewis and Clark Caravan from St. Charles, Mo 
to Oregon 52 days.  A great Caravan.  Then to SF to visit family then 
started back East via Yellowstone and Jackson Center where I had a number 
of repairs and an alignment.
on the road,  I had any number of problems with the trailer but all were 
able to be taken care of without any significant down time. On the road had 
one blowout, two tire de-laminations, one side wall failure, 4 break wires 
knocked off, two magnets replaced,  the air conditioner failed on a 97 
degree day but was able to get a new one installed the same day.
	At Jackson Center, I was able to have my door straightened and the frame 
put back in its original position.  I can now lock the door from both the 
inside and outside via the deadlock.  The door flew open at 65 miles per 
hour on the return trip from the Sarasota Rally last February, in the 
meantime had a number of door bending sessions but never got it quite 
right.    The  door frame had also moved and the factory put it back and 
place and anchored it down with new screws.  Also had a gray water valve 
replaced, and  both water intakes both replaced as well as the steps 
reworked.  All now seem to be in as new condition so should be good to go 
for quite awhile.  Life on the road was very good and will have to figure 
out this work thing, it is getting close to time to pack it in.
