Options for TV at Tailgate
Jul 25, 2017, 12:51 PM
|

It seems like Dish is the main option. According to some antenna sites, the only channel we could get with just a powered antenna would be PBS out of Greenville (no networks with football). I wish cell service was better on gamedays because I would just stream with unlimited data...
Anything more affordable than the Dish Tailgater?

The folks that we used to tailgate beside used to bring a TV, long cable, and a splitter to tap into whatever game we had on with the DirecTV setup. Did that for multiple years and didn't bother us.

Yessir, I mounted mine with a little liquid nails and half a 2x8. If reception gets bad, I just crank her up and cut the tires.

You must be confusing me with some of these rednecks round here. I only use duck tape for emergencies and when the kids get out of hand.

Do you have friends. .with dish or direct?
Borrow thier box. Buy a cheap regular dish..find signal yourself.
It's easier than people make it out. Just need patience.

Pick up an LNB meter for less than $20.

Just know where 110 and 119 South is and start from there.
The Superdish 1000's are a little trickier with 3 LNB's but if you don't need HD then a 500 will do.

How do you thread the coax BNC into your phone?

Without an interface to connect to the LNB how do you adjust for signal strength.
The app would be easy enough but could you insert a link for the hardware used?

You can get a long one at Wal Mart for $10.
