We have cable at the dock, which is great at night for ball games. We tried our mushroom antenna at the sand bar once or twice during football season, could not get anything worth watching. Got channel 9 once in a while and 6 from Maine a few times. So we turn on a radio for sports.
If you get a sat dish and you have satelite at home you can use the same reciever and account. I've thought about it to avoid cable fees but never tried it. You would have to solve the 120 volt issue if your 280 dosen't have a generator, or only use it at the dock.
Every time I pull the mushroom off, for the shrink wrap and put it back on in the spring, I wonder why I just don't throw it away. Too much work to patch the hole in the arch.
