RV Satellite TV: TV To Go
If you want your recreational vehicle to have all of the comforts of home, then television is a necessity. Naturally, if you intend to drive your RV somewhere the logistics of arranging for TV reception may seem challenging. With today's technology and options, it should come as no surprise that you can make your favorite TV shows as portable as you want.
Uplink, Downlink
Except for the most local of programming, all television is satellite television. Instead of broadcasting TV over the airwaves, broadcasters now send their programming through an uplink to a satellite orbiting the earth. The satellites then send the encrypted and compressed signals back to earth using a downlink which is received by satellite dishes. If the dish belongs to an individual, the transmission is complete. The signal is decrypted and sent to the television set for viewing.
Otherwise, the satellite dish belongs to a television station that receives the programming from its network to broadcast to its own viewing area. This allows the insertion of local commercials, news bulletins and other types of information. Cable TV companies also receive their programming through satellite dishes. They grab signals from many networks and channels, decrypt the signals and send them along to viewers through the cable. Of these three options, the best for RV satellite TV is the first.
A satellite dish can be purchased from a satellite TV subscription service. You can purchase a programming package of channels you prefer and take it along for RV satellite TV. Of course, when a home is designed to drive down the highway, hooking up a satellite dish can involve some decisions. For reasons of security and safety, the best place to plan its placement is the roof of the RV. You can attach it with a tripod-like fixture that will fold down for traveling but necessitate attaching and detaching when arriving and leaving your camp ground.
There are also special mountings that will allow you to collapse the whole apparatus including the dish for traveling. The next step is to aim your dish to receive your RV satellite TV signal. You need to find the correct direction and angle for the signal that you subscribe to. Each new stomping ground will present a new challenge. Although the signal is easy enough to locate with the proper instructions, you need an unobstructed shot at the satellite. That means that trees and other coverings can block your RV satellite TV signal. Keep a ground mount on hand in case roof mounting is not practical in your new place. As long as you subscribe to a service that is available to answer questions, your RV satellite TV will be ready, willing and able to travel along.
