I have to make a decision. Adding radar to my '05 340 in August. I am also pondering Satellite TV in the future. If I am going to add satellite at some point I'd rather just buy a dual radar mount now so that when ready I just add the KV type satellite dome. But..... do I really need or want satellite? In theory it's nice and I already have Dish at the beach house so it could be bundled. However, my TV watching, and it is limited, is almost exclusively in marinas while travelling the ICW. A satellite dish will also increase my clearance requirement for bridges. I have started to think that I could just upgrade my TV to a larger smart TV and just use Netflix or Amazon Prime for viewing. that has it's limitations as well though as marina WiFi is often hit or miss. I would greatly appreciate thoughts/advice from those who have gone down this same route. Thanks!
