We decided to take the lid of the Camos Dome and take it apart, we must say that we were impressed.

The Dome Satellite System from Camos is well constructed an uses high quality components from the PCB to the stainless steel bolts.

Overall the dome provided an all round package that was hard to beat.

When you take the lid of the Camos Dome you notice that the unit is very clean and well presented. (Even with the lid off the unit is tidy)

Camos Dome without Cover

The dome satellite dish is powered by some serious high speed motors which use heavy duty cam belts to move the dish.

The LNB is also a quality unit and can be skewed if you need to.

We removed the dish is self to take a closer look at the bearings that enable the Camos Dome to move with ease.

Again the bearings used on the Camos Satellite Dome are tip top and would easily last a lifetime.

The whole satellite dish is self is moved using another motor which protrudes from the underside of the dish assembly.

This also has a support wheel with another heavy bearing through it.

Conclusion:

After taking the Camos Dome Satellite System apart, we found that the unit was constructed using high quality components. This ensures that the unit is free from any maintanance.

The unit is reliable and easy to install which makes it an ideal unit for the avid DIY person.

We would like to thank TSW COMSAT for providing the unit for testing.

We are always looking for things to take apart, so if you have a unit you would like us to look at please let us know.

What do you do then, well there is nothing you can do really, beside from asking the insurance company to pay out anyway. Well let me tell you something, you can call them until you are blue in the face, they will not pay out for something that is not under their banner, even if it was not your fault. It is just not done, and who is to blame that the caravan was not insured in the first place? Well this seem to be a topic that your wife will have your ear for, because she did tell you to take the full comprehensive cover, even though it is a bit more expensive. However, you thought that you could save a bit of cash with the other one. Well no your have to pay for a new caravan, or your family will have to sleep in a rental caravan until you can get the rest of everything sorted out, and who know what sort of germs are living in those rentals?

So now we can all see that caravan insurance is a must, we all know that the above example is just but one, there could be a fire, while you are all at the seas side, or at the pool, there could be an earthquake, or something like that, and you will be ever so happy if you know that you have caravan insurance, so get it today, and sleep a bit better tomorrow, because anything can happen anywhere at any time, it is up to you to be protected.

Alden 90cm Netmaster

We have been trying to get hold of someone with the Alden Netmaster for some time now and today we did.

The Alden Netmaster is a 90cm Satellite System with a built in satellite transceiver.

With the push of a button the dish swings into action and you are surfing the next in under 3 Min’s at near broadband speeds.

When Yuh have finished you just select from a choice of alternative satellites, switch on the receiver and you have the TV on.

The dish retails at £3999.9 and is imported into the country from France by RoadPro Limited of Daventry.

Do you think this would be a system for you or is the cost to high?

Caravan Resorces with detailed links to lots of caravan satellite system dealers and retailers with some rather nice web site thumbs.

We addve a new section on the Dome satellite system from Neta, Camos and TracVision with images.

We added several user guides for Oyster, Alden and Camos
