Portable Satellite Dish
Get a portable satellite
dish and watch TV in your RV, on the road, or
anywhere.
Television has become such a staple for
American families during the last fifty years. Once where
there was three stations, there's now over three hundred!
There's simply a station for everyone.
If you want to watch something, you can
probably find it on the fancy satellite television systems. And
now for those of you that can't be away from your television
sets for even a moment, now you don't have to! Just go
and find yourself aportable satellite dish.
That's right, your satellite dish
doesn't have to stay at home when you want to go out and
about. Now you really can take it with you!
Thanks to modern technology, you and
your family can now enjoy satellite TV in your vehicle, either
while driving or while you are parked. Portable satellite
dishes can not only receive satellite TV signals, they are also
able to track and lock onto transmissions while your vehicle is
moving.
Portable dishes (which have to be placed
on top of the vehicle) will usually have a plastic dome for
protection from the weather.
The actual installation of a portable
satellite dish is pretty much the same as your one at home. The
dishes are generally sold pre-assembled and come with a
control unit. All you will have to do is attach the unit to the
roof of your vehicle and wire it.
When installing the dish you will also
have to bear in mind the height it will add to your vehicle,
for clearance purposes. You certainly don't want to be in
the middle of your favorite episode of MURDER SHE WROTE and
drive under a bridge, knocking off your dish!
But what if you want a REALLY portable
satellite dish? Like one that can even fit your briefcase
or purse... that's right YOUR briefcase or purse! Well
welcome to the 21st century!
DIRECTTV has a portable satellite dish
known as Sat-Go that resembles a large, 27 pound laptop
computer. It's a complete satellite TV system with a
17-inch monitor, satellite dish, receiver, rechargeable
battery, and AC/DC adapters for your car. All you do is plug it
in, line up the antenna, and you're in business.
With Sat-Go you can get satellite TV
while you're away from home AND your vehicle. You can
keep track of all the football games on NFL Sunday while
camping, laying out by the pool, or even tailgating at your
favorite team's stadium. How awesome is that?!
The wonderful complete Sat-Go system can
be purchased for less than $1,000 at major electronic stores
like Best Buy, or your favorite online store.
Before you can begin watching TV you
will have to get a subscription to the satellite TV provider,
just like you would with a normal system. Most popular
satellite TV companies offer portable satellite dish
packages.
