How Do You Install A Satellite TV System In An RV?
Installing a satellite system in an RV is simple in theory, but often there are unforeseen problems that hinder or halt progress. The basic principle of setting up a satellite system is a very logical step by step process. The signal hits the satellite dish and reflects it into the LNB (Low Noise Block) which receives the signal at the end of the dish. The signal is then sent along to the receiver which is located inside the RV. From there it is sent to the TV. Decide on the best place for the dish and attach it to the roof of the RV. Keep in mind the space that is needed to fold your dish down and to rotate it to get a signal. Give enough space but try to minimize the distance that the coaxial cable will have to run as excess length can degrade the signal. Often times attaching a satellite dish to an RV will include screwing a mounting plate to the roof which will require a drill, screws and a screw driver. Be sure to caulk around the screws to prevent leakages. Most satellite dishes
