What is the difference between a fixed and a portable satellite dish? Anyone who opts for satellite TV in their motorhome or caravan will soon be faced with the choice between a fixed dish and a portable dish. Both options have their own advantages and suit different types of travellers.
A fixed satellite dish is mounted on the roof of the motorhome and operates fully automatically. With just the push of a button, the dish searches for the correct satellite, allowing you to start watching TV immediately. This solution is ideal for those who value convenience and frequently change locations. There is no need to set anything up, and everything is neatly integrated and out of sight.
A portable satellite dish , such as the Travel Vision R7, offers greater flexibility. The dish is placed separately on a tripod at the location with the best signal reception. This is especially useful when trees block the line of sight to the satellite. The portable dish is easy to transport and quick to set up.
In practice, many travelers choose a fixed satellite dish for its comfort, especially those who travel frequently and move from place to place. Holidaymakers who stay at one location for a longer period or camp among trees often appreciate the flexibility of a portable dish. Ultimately, the best choice depends on your travel habits as well as your personal preference.
With Travel Vision's satellite solutions, you are assured of ease of use, reliable reception and television viewing wherever you are.
