Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

This works great and there is the link here to get the App for the phone.  This site also allows you to “pre-check” a site to find out if it will work.  You can put the pointer right over a campsite and see if anything might be in the way.

The App for the iPhone works quite well when parking.

Remember, your looking for Satellite 101 - with 99 and 103 right beside 101.  If you can get 101 the other two HD birds will come in 99% of the time for camping needs.  Be sure and let the App use you location.  Without your exact location it doesn't have a clue where the satellites really are.

Hi all,

This is not a reply but a question in this discussion.  I'm new at this.  I will have Dish Network and would like to find those satellites but I don't even know what they are named or what locations they are in.  Need a real basic explanation, if that's possible.
