Discontinued but supported… Replaced by Winegard G2 Portable Carryout
The 8000 Series RoadTrip MiniMax model offers both In Motion (TV while moving) and Stationary (parked) domed antennas. It features a small size – only 15.6″ tall with a 20″ base, and tremendous ease of use. This domed satellite dish for your RV comes in both black and white. The MiniMax antenna will support satellite service from DirecTV, Dish Network, and Bell ExpressVue (Canadian version of Dish Network) for the best in satellite TV for your RV.
Ease of use
The RoadTrip MiniMax Series Satellite antenna comes pre-programmed for DirecTV but can easily be changed over to DirecTV 101-119 (no HD), Dish Network – Western arc 110-119-129, Eastern arc 61.5-72-77, Hybrid 110-119-6.5 – and Bell ExpressVue 82-92 satellite orbits. If you choose to switch satellite providers, just take the cover off and flip some dip switches, reinstall the dome and you are ready to go.
The antenna only requires 12 volts dc to operate the antenna and is as simple as flipping a panel mounted rocker switch mounted inside a cabinet or on a wall of the RV. The antenna will support two receivers which allow different channels on two different receivers. NOTE: Dish Network or Bell Express mode will support single tuner receivers and not DVRs or dual tuners since the antenna will toggle between satellites.
Construction
The RoadTrip Mission Series is an American made product built to take the elements. It has a heavy-duty plastic base with metal mounting feet and features a metal reflector (instead of a plastic one inside the dome) giving you the highest signal strength for its size. The specially treated UV dome helps shed water for optimum performance even in inclement weather. The antenna comes with a power cable and coaxial cables, roof penetration plate, screws, wall plate, and installation/instruction manual. We recommend using #12 stainless steel screws. The antenna comes with a two year warranty covering labor the 1st year.
