2.7 Configuring TracVision L3 for
Remote Satellite Dish O peration
In some campground locations, dense foliage will block the
satellite signal. In these situations, a remote portable antenna
may be the only solution to satellite signal reception.
The wiring option for the remote dish is very simple and should
be installed when the TracVision L3 is installed. A high-quality
"A/B switch" should be used to change from TracVision L3
dish reception to remote antenna operation. The recommended
wiring arrangement for remote dish operation is illustrated in
Figure 2-23.
