-Winegard makes many portable RV satellite units that can be utilized either directly through a serial port to pass commands to it's firmware, or it's control PCB can be removed and replaced with an Arduino, H-bridge and gyroscope combo DIY custom control system. Both options are rather easy, but sometimes require knowing obscure information you would have no way of knowing beforehand -- this resource is for these types of things.
- Write about briefly, link to, the power injection cable as well as the RJ25 + RS485 custom jobs often needed in order to work with these dishes.
