Quick Reference Guide

Your Winegard RoadTrip satellite System has been designed to be the most user-friendly Mobile Satellite Antenna on the market today. Upon installation of the antenna, or after changing satellite service provider, simply set the switches inside of the dome to the settings shown below. These switches enable the dish to locate the proper satellite for your service provider, and, for the RoadTripTM SDi In-Motion system, to be set for the proper installation option. Simply set the switch, and forget it! Your Winegard RoadTrip Satellite Antenna will locate the proper satellite with just the flip of a switch.
