I had my sat on over the weekend and was thinking how easy this automatic sat antenna works when the wife turned on the water pump. The sat instantly started to aquire signal but never would till I shut the pump off. I tried tuning on 12 volt lights and it did it again! I checked the converter voltage and it was12 volts till I turned anything on then it dropped. I checked the battery and it was full, then I checked the date and noticed it wasn't my battery! It was a 7 year old Continental car battery! Sometime since the first of April someone stole my Interstate deep cycle battery and left an old car battery! I can't believe they went to the work of installing an old car battery. So tonight I will be putting in another new battery and figuring out a way to secure it.
