Like I said, roof mounted antenna is OK as long as your parked out in the open. Once your parked in the trees, or trees block your view, their done for. My first travler failed within 14 months. Solution, take it down, box it up, spend a hundred dollars shipping it to Winegard and wait. 700 more dollars layer I got it back, assured it was fixed. Drug it back up on the roof and voalla, still dead. After two weeks of yelling Winegard sent me to a local dealer who was willing to check it out. Winegard did not trust me. Two more weeks and the dealer determined exactly the same things I had a month earlier. Dead! Winegard finally conceded that they had no clue what was wrong or how to fix it. So a new one went up there. Now, five years later this one is Dead. Winegards only solution, replace the short coax between head and LNB. Nope, still dead, replaced LNB, still dead. My only recourse now, take it off the roof and spend another hundred dollars sending it to them in hopes they may actually be able to repair it. Then spend more $$$ to get it back. RfMogul may be 500 dollars more money, but they can be fixed in the field, and they will sell you parts. Winegard refused to sell parts. Tells me a lot about the company as a whole.
