The first image is me using the Align-A-Site
to check on where to put the tripod. In this case, I'm located in
Arizona, and there are no trees in the area. Period. So I checked
to see how close I could put the dish to the back of the rig. Five
feet from the back, and I had clear sky, at my short height. The dish
will be higher, so I could go maybe 4 feet. OK, I promise when I get
into trees, I will post images of finding holes in trees, until then,
this will have to do.
OK, it's me, and the tripod, and it's a better picture of the tripod
than me. I'm not a very tall guy, 5' 6", so you can see the
tripod, folded up, is not very long. It fits in the back of the
Honda with no problem at all. The offset arm stays on the tripod
all the time.
