Satellite TV
I am thinking about adding an in-motion satellite from Tracvision to
my BB. I was wondering if anyone had a opinion about the in-motion viewing? I would also like to know the difference between the L2 for $1596.99 and the L3 for $2197.00 (prices from camping world)? I have been on Tracvisions website and didn't really get a clear difference. I have Dishnetwork installed at home and that is the reciever I will be using, if that makes any difference. Thanks Brian Gehl 79FC35 Springville, IA. |

I have the S2 stationary TracVision. It was on the BB when I bought it.
I also have the Dish network. All I did to make it work was to plug in the control box to 110V, hook up the coax feed to the box, and set the TV on channel 3. It searched for a couple minutes and then I got great reception.

i had a kvh tracking dish that didn't work the day i got it,at every show that i
went to kvh had to work on it,reprograming etc,etc/they told me it was becaise i used dish network..i changed to direct tv,had them reprogram it again and it still didnt work worth a damn.then last summer the receiver went bad,and the only receiver that would work with the dish was an old outdated reciever that nobody had.i had to find one at a yard sale..so,last month on a racing trip it quit working again.so,i tossed it,and bought a new king tracking dish. i just wanted to share my kvh stories,i paid 3200 bucks for it and the service was terrible,i was a vendor at the shows and i was at their booth the day before the show started so i could get it worked on. i would not get any kvh products,not even free! on the other hand,the king unit was an easy install,i hooked it up,turned it on,and within 3 min.it was doing the job. i have not been on a road trip yet,but i do do donuts in the yard,it stayed on satilite,locked on at 98%..so far so good! before i bought it i called king customer service,as expected i got voice mail,but,within the hour they called me back!! that made me very happy!! kvh never called me back,not once...thanks,randy ----- Original Message ----- From: randydupree To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, May 13, 2005 12:15 PM Subject: Re: [WanderlodgeForum] Satellite TV brian, i just put on a new tracking dish yesterday,i used the king brand.contact me at randy@... i've had a tracking dish for 5 years.. ----- Original Message ----- From: bgehl_6399 To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, May 13, 2005 10:03 AM Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Satellite TV I am thinking about adding an in-motion satellite from Tracvision to my BB.

There is one of these systems that provide for 2 way internet access while on
the road. The one I was looking at was about $3000.00. The more expensive one you were quoted may be it.

If I read the site correctly, I think the internet dish is for use only in
Europe. Motosat Data storm was the only unit I found for 2-way internet on the road and unfortunately you have to be at a standstill. It's a $7000+ unit after installation. I bought mine off e-bay for $3000, but after all was said and done, it was closer to $5000.

Note that some folks hooked their dish directly to the coach 12VDC that was not filtered properly and that caused problems. Using an ac adapter and the inverter or shore power works fine. You must have ac for the TV and receiver anyway so plug in the adapter where the TV is plugged in. Rich D.
