In-Motion Satellite Question

[Tom McCarthy]

Glenn,

I have KVH L3 in-motion and love it. I also use DirecTV which
automatically selects the satelite.

I do not have HDTV yet. If you get it, report on your findings for the
rest of us.

Mounting appeared to be fairly easy (AMEX). I did have to sign the
credit slip.

Location, location, location. Pick the spot where it has the most
clearance from other devices mounted on the roof. It is a line of
sight system that can be easily blocked by buildings, trees,
overpasses, Rotton Rob walking on your roof while you teenage son is
trying to watch TV and heavy rain. Where ever you choose, be assured
the next spot you park will have one tree directly blocking your
reception. Try moving forward or back to get a clear signal.
