Any of these I have seen are portable and not mounted. Too much chance of trees blocking the satellite path otherwise I would think.

Different brand but we have a roof mounted unit. It’s nice going down the road when we have the boys with us but coverage in camp is 50/50 at best due to trees etc. We also have a Dish Tailgater for when we don’t have coverage and really want it.
If I was going one or other I would stick with Tailgater.

The wires then ran down the fridge compartment to a switch and the rest of the pieces/parts.
The vent area makes for fairly easy access, but becareful that you get it all covered up well so that you don't introduce new leaks.

I didn't run this wire through a vent. Got a 1 pc white weatherproof solar photovoltaic plastic bracket curved cable connector to run my cable for my Weboost signal booster. We now stream the TV we watch at most places using our AT&T phones as a hot spot. Had 60 down on Lake Somerville in February but only about 5 or 6 in the bowl that is Brazos Bend SP and still streamed some. A few photos of the install.
