I have reservations that it would work with a motorhome but I don't know.

Not a chance for current internet technology (StarBand etc.). FCC is VERY strict about uplink parameters (must hit a transponder 22,300 miles away) and the polorizing filter inside the feedhorn has to adjusted while getting feedback numbers from the ISP.

FYI...if the Echostar/DirecTV merger goes through, they will move the platform to Spaceway

Eddie, thanks for the link to SpaceWay, I saved it to my favorites and will be checking back occassionally to see what is happening. I know that new technologies are coming that will continually change our world. As the growth in connection speeds expands, all kinds of information, entertainment, and communications will be available instantly at any location. This will facilitate great opportunities for providing people with services that will become 'necessities' in a few years. Perhaps SpaceWay will be a big part of that. We will just have to wait and see.
