We are full timers and can get a signal 99.9% of the time using this method. Takes me normally 10-15 minutes to set this up without using any meter. I use a Hopper3 receiver.
Excuse my ignorance but what is "EA Hybrid and WA Hybrid Inb"? And do I understand that one of these allows me to get a signal thru the trees? I still use an eleven yr. old Tailgater and have used more than 100' of cable more than once....but am having a little trouble getting it to change sats.
Started off using tripod for about 5 yrs but it was a hassle.

Thanks in advance.
