I had a Maxview crank-up and it wasn't simple or idiot proof.. still need to use a compass and sat finder.. and when it was windy.. had to wind it down..

simplest of the lot is a BROKEN LINK .. that's what I have now, .. easy peasy to align .. and not that expensive , find second hand on eBay

example..

Are you planning on going abroad? If you only need TV in this country, we have just gone through this process of which dome, how much etc etc. Having spoken to a PVC converter, they said if you are only travelling in U.K. why have a dome? They recommended a Glomex system which is an omnidirectional? Aerial You just fit and forget it.

Firstly I found I was never using it. It was on the van when I bought it.
Secondly when folded down it partially covered the solar panel, and was restricting my solar input. After removing it the solar input went up considerably so was worth the effort.
