This refers to a fully installed satellite dish system. The unit is permanently fitted to your vehicle
and is controlled from inside using a control box with the press of a button. This system is also
linked to the vehicle battery and ignition. This type of satellite system in usually installed by a
professional.
You can take a look at the section here.

The Satellite dome is a great choice
for caravan owners as it one of the only satellite systems that can be removed and stored inside
the vehicle is need be.
The dome satellite system has been around for some time now and has become tried
and tested technology.

This is ordinarily a dish type system, that is fitted through the roof of your
vehicle. It has either a crank up type operation or in some cases a motor for the elevation, but
you then have to rotate the unit to pinpoint the satellite. This type of unit is usually
installed by a professional but is possible to install by a competent
D.I.Y person.

The manual or portable satellite system refers to any satellite dish that is not
directly installed onto your caravan. Therefore by this definition it also covers satellite systems
that have been attached to the caravan on a temporary basis and must be removed before you travel.
This type of system will not need installing.

Other component parts
 |
The dish or dome is indeed the main component part of any caravan satellite
system but you also have to consider the receiver. This can be either a SKY box, a Free To Air (FTA) receiver or a UK FREESAT box.
|
Satellite Tuner or Sat-Finder
 |
This is a vital part of the fitted manual and portable systems, but is not
required for the automatic system. The sat-finder can be either a simple device that whistles or a
complicated device that shows the satellite you are on, signal strength and signal quality.

Tripods & Mountings
|
|
We will take a look at the wide verity of satellite system mounting methods for
caravans. We will look at tripods, Suction mounts and clamps. The tripod is an old favorites for
the caravan owner as it gives you freedom to move the caravan satellite system about. The other
methods are ways to secure the dish to the van, this may not be the best method but it dues give
you a secure tamper free mounting surface.
|
Television or LCD TV
 |
This will be a very, very brief look at the best television for the caravan
satellite system. It will be brief because we do not want to have to create another whole website
to cover all the television.

Mobile Broadband allows you to connect to the internet wherever you are,
regardless of whether you are in a Wi-Fi hotspot or near a phone line. The information isn't
received through a fixed-line modem so you don't have to worry about line rental and you don't
always have to connect to the net using the same computer. In the same way that your mobile phone
works, you can access the internet all over the country (and overseas if you like) as long as your
service provider (the mobile broadband company you sign up to) covers the area that you're in
