Know it's been discussed many times before, but last weekend was the first holiday, on a campsite with no analoque or digital television signal.

Anyway, sold my old tent and camping trailer and thought about buying a sattalite dish.

As this has been discussed before , i only want to know about the following product.

Omnisat 54cm Portable Satellite Kit.

It retails at 130 pounds and wondered if anybody has one that they could comment on.

Thanks Mark.

Hi Mark, I have used a dish and tripod for years. I would'nt bother with a maxview set up just find an old sky dish and a cheap tripod from ebay. The sky dish being mesh is less suseptable to wind. You should get a tripod from ebay for £30 and there are always sky dishes arround. I have one you can have for free.

I also did that, before getting one in a suitcase but I only got that for tidiness.

We do the same. Have a tripod plus 80cm dish, use it everywhere. This site really helps with the set up:

Satellite Finder / Dish Pointing Calculator with Google Maps | DishPointer.com

Always make a note of settings, etc. before we go. Never really had a problem............. other than trees sometimes! But at least you can move a tripod mounted dish whereas if it's on the RV it's a little more difficult. ::bigsmile:

Used the next size up for 4years in the UK and abroad works very well easy to set up use the pegs when windy keeps it in place when fixed units have to fold theirs down.
