Tv and dish (1 Viewer)

[Spidermonkey]

have been looking at tvs and dishes etc - does any one rate a fixed dish at an expensive cost ovrr a cheaper freestanding dish. We don't watch that much tv so it seems the cheaper option would work with a decent dish comments welcome pls

When you say fixed dish do you mean manual or automatic?
Only advantage I can see in a fixed manual over a portable is you don't get wet if it's raining.

I use one of these connected to an old camera tripod.

I had a Sky dish set up on a Tripod and I now have a auto searching dome on the roof.

Both do exactly the same job, equally well.

One cost approximately 30 times more than the other.

It is a lot to pay for "convenience". I could set the mobile dish up in 3 or 4 minutes, but it was a pain if it was raining and a little bit of a nuisance if you are travelling every day setting up and dismantling.

You pays your money and makes your choice.....:thumb:
