Bajatravelergeorge,
I have a few neighbors using Telcel 3G here 2 miles east of La Buf'. They report that it can be OK at 6AM, but iffy at other times.

Wonder why? We're surrounded with towers. Maybe they're behind a hill.

It's because Telcel sells more devices than they have the capacity for. They are happy to take your money but it doesn't mean you'll actually get what you pay for, they are the worst telecom company I have ever dealt with.

Hey Bob. It isn't the 60 that scares me.It's the 1500-2000 to have it on my m/h. Don't know why you think I'm a snow bird.Have'nt had snow here in north san diego county since I was in high school;).

most people here on the bay have given up the fight and pay the $60 a month for sat service

there are still a few holdouts that share or look for unsecured wirless but those people are very fustrated all winter

with hughes...you aim the dish
turn on the modem and surf

Hi Bob. Made a little error. It's not 2000 for install on rv. Looks like around 5000. Gotta figure something else. May get my wife to do without and take a vacation.
