There were some negative reviews about this item, so I was a little hesitant to order it- Most of the complaints revolve around lack of stakes or other means of tying down $3 later, I went to a dollar store and bought three of the screw in the ground stakes I use for dogs That's perfect - thank you! There was only one size in my dollar store, and it was obviously for small dogs. Several larger tripods will not fit through the holes in the feet thanks to their large size. From experience, I know that some much larger tripods will not fit. There is only one negative consideration - you must use it on an almost level surface. An oversized main pole allows this model to be reversible- With the switch to DIRECT TV, it will be easier to use for other purposes and increase the resale value of the property. The quality of the product was fair considering the price- Definitely one for the keeper's shelf! Although I have not done so yet, I will obtain wing bolts to replace the six screw in bolts (3 at bottom and 3 where the mast goes through at the top) to assist in taking down and setting up the tents at campsites more quickly and without wrenches.
Setup of the tripod takes about five minutes, and getting it level is the most difficult part. In most cases, it works best if you prop up the lower legs until the vertical pole is level on all sides then secure it with heavy-duty tent stakes through the holes in the bottom. You will have a hard time catching a satellite signal if the unit is not level! The update for September 2017 is as follows This tripod has been used outdoors for 20-30 days and has been outdoors for one year I have been using it for 30 days (multiple times near the beach) and it is starting to get places of rust and corrosion. Since it is galvanized steel, I assumed this would not happen but I may have been However, it still worked, so I sprayed silicone spray all over it to prevent it from spreading. We are reducing our rating from 4 stars.
still had a dish in a house I was not living in anymore. In that case, I set up this tripod and took it off the roof. Now that I have a portable satellite at camp, I can watch satellite television. The system works and will give you a signal as long as you level your dish. Also, try to find satellites on the dish Network by using a dish finder device. It will help you in your search.
In addition, I welded washers on the bolt heads creating longer bolts that are easier to hand tighten, drilled through the bottom collar into the mast to install a removable pin that locks the mast in place, and welded the bottom loop to the ground to tie down the stakeout. The result of all these modifications is I think I have the best portable dish tripod in the world!.
It works well for my Dish tv and once I anchored it using tent stakes I had ten inches long, it was solid and solid Simple to assemble and took only a few minutes. On the ground, the feet do not lie flat. that is what you're looking for, this program is not Using my own, I have found that it works well on soil and gravel. Now that I can use a larger dish I am very happy!.
You've set the degree at the correct level. Returning it in the end. It's not the fault of the While it met all our needs, I did not think I was cut out for the self-camping satellite set up. As soon as I saw my one and done, I knew what I needed to do. The south is not in fine form. You've set the degree at the correct level. This or that. Nevertheless, the construction is excellent. The strength is great. The setting up of your satellite is a piece of cake with these simple instructions.
This is the dish mount that we bought for our travel trailer so we could mount our Direct TV dish. The product states that it includes 3 ground spikes, but there were none included with the product. Fortunately, we had some on hand and we were able to secure it, which is why it earned.
An easy-to-use product with a strong construction. In order for the locking nuts to be useful, I had to epoxy them in place.
