I am looking to mount a Starlink transceiver on my overland rack. Ideally, I'll park somewhere with a decent view of the sky, and just leave the dish mounted to the truck. I already have existing external WiFi antennas mounted on the truck, so I can afford to be a pretty good distance from the truck and still get WiFi signal.
Starlink recently released a new flat dish. That seems like a perfectly logical choice, but the downside is that it doesn't move to better connect with the satellites.
I'm thinking another option might be to mount the old style Starlink dish to the rack with some kind of bracket that will let me tilt it down/flat. I could stow it (tilt it so it's parallel to the bed) when I'm moving, and then erect it when I'm stationary.
Anybody have any thoughts on this?
