looks good hope we can visit in the future!
Potable antenna, place where needed, gun mount you may have an issue.That's funny, I looked at the picture and thought that needs more trees=shade. But we don't use satellite so that didn't cross my mind.
Good luck with this new adventure!
Amen!I wish parks would list the sites with a "satellite view" or at least know them when I call.
With US consumer DBS satellites ranging from 61.5 degrees to 129 degrees on the Clarke Belt, how should park owners rate their sites for the view?Amen!
Primarily by obstructions blocking antenna view to the south. It's not complex. DirecTV and DIsh (the prime concerns) satellites are south from within the U.S. I wouldn't expect a degree-by-degree rating, just, "Are there obstructions to the south?"With US consumer DBS satellites ranging from 61.5 degrees to 129 degrees on the Clarke Belt, how should park owners rate their sites for the view?
Depending on the parks location, there are DBS satellites from the south east to the south west. The azimuth spread from Lebanon, KS for instance is ~92 degrees. I suppose if parks at least noted that the sites have a view towards the 101-119 sats at the required elevation, that would ensure some reception for both services anyway.Primarily by obstructions blocking antenna view to the south.
