When you see those trailers and RV’s around the campsites that have an array of Ariel’s and dishes rising out of the roof, most people would think how great that would be, imagine driving around the country, stopping at a park or stopover point and being able to watch all of the programming that would if your were at home, sounds great to me!

The only problem is the dishes and Ariel’s that would need to put up and lined up to the signals, this would actually spoil the day or night!

But naturally there is a solution and it comes in the form of a suitcase.
