Title: Satellite dish
Post by: eagle10 on February 03, 2011, 03:55:52 AM
Need some advice on satellite dishes. We just bought a different coach here in  Florida while on vacation. The satellite dish has been removed so we need a new one. The information with the coach says it had an automatic one on it. Any comments on what works good. Also, where is a good place to buy one and have it installed?
Thanks.

A Prevost presently located near Arcadia.  It looks like a PO removed the dish and installed a plate to cover the hole.  I am pretty sure this is the coach Bob bPetty had for sale at our rally.  Jack

Jack I thought prevost went north! Maybe I'm thinking of another one but the one Bob was selling was his personal bus and don't think HE would have removed the dish. Coils be two different units altogether.

This is a Liberty that Bob was selling for the owner, then took it to the auction after our rally (no sale), but owner then took it back to Miami airport where it was purchased by Dennis & Karen.  Jack

We have a Moto Sat that is not in motion (we don't watch T-V going down the road) and it works good. $995.00

I think he had owned this bus at one time?  Jack

The Prevost is the one that Bob Petty owned. Keep the satellite information coming as we plan to get one. Thanks.

I thought that was the same one he had when we went camping up in north Florida and Daytona.  I knew he had sold it but didn't know who to. Wouldn't think he would remove the dish but maybe he did!

Someone removed it as all I see up there is a big patch on the roof with the wires cut off. That's fine as we will get another one.

Sounds more like someone stole it and then rather than replacing it Bob maybe covered it over! Not sure but I can find out if HE did or not!

I don't care what happened to it. It is not an issue with us as we will replace it. Its gone.
