EAA AirVenture (airshow) Oshkosh, WI

Cellular: watching airplanes
SAT: watching airplanes
OTA TV: watching airplanes

Cell companies have temp stations setup but the networks are saturated. A case where you'll have full signal (4 bars) but no data

I've been wanting to get Starlink setup but with cellular speeds generally over 100 MB/s down it's hard to get my lazy butt motivated to shlep things around. Today with the network saturation and noticing my new neighbor has his dishy up I figured I'd do it.

Every RV ever made is here, all RVers, 20 gazillion RV's in total. This is only about 10-20% of the land of RV's in view.

Edit: I'm boondocking and solar is kicking butt. I'm back to 100% (SOC) by noon. 5+ year old house batteries (8). 1800W of solar in use. Later in the day the AGS is working the gen as designed for the air conditioner automatically starting and stopping the GEN only when AC's call for it.

Des Moines West KOA. Arrived on a Saturday in mid-90s temps and what a zoo. Their pool is about the same size of mine and it looked like there were 75 people in it. There isn’t enough money…

I’ll spare you the pool photo. Think Caddyshack.

Hey, there's Dishy! Pretty cool how it automatically locks in on the sat's!
 
Sleepy Creek Vineyards in Fairmount, IL. It was as serene as it looks. Good stop. We aren’t wine connoisseurs, but we purchased two bottles which will likely become gifts at some point.

Spent the last couple days completely out of touch boondocking at the Dugway Recreation Area (BLM) 6 miles north of Sinclair (and I-80) Wyoming. Very pleasant, quiet, and the price was right. In Elko NV tonight at an unremarkable RV park to service tanks etc, and rest, then tomorrow headed home.

Hi Rich: Beautiful, we just traveled through Wyoming. The vastness of the west is mind boggling. Colorado & Kansas is the same way. Nebraska is million of acres as far as the eye can see and no homes. Just a farm scattered here and there.

Enjoy the journey.

It has all been truely delightful. That last pick was taken from the spot I had to hike to in order to get a couple bars of long term evolution. That’s the North Platt River.
 
Shiny coach is a good coach...at Showalter RV in Nappanee, IN - just around the corner from the mother ship.
