Test report from 18.06.2018
Where was the Megasat satellite system Campingman Portable 2 in use?
„I used the Megasat at a campsite in Leipzig, as well as at various locations during the trip.“
How long could you test the product?
„1 week“
What was the first impression of the satellite system Campingman Portable 2?
„The Megasat makes a quality and very good impression.“
How do you like the look and workmanship of the satellite system and components?
„The look is appealing, the workmanship is very good. Sufficiently long satellite cables are included, all equipped with matching plugs. Advantageous is a satellite junction box on the caravan, this avoids jammed cables in the door or on a window.
Surprisingly, a power supply is missing, only a connection cable with a plug for 12V is included.
Very good is the additional eyelet to attach an anti-theft device, so the loss of the antenna can be avoided when the system is placed on the ground a little away from the caravan.“
How easy did you find it to set up the test device?
„The operation is very simple, the operating instructions are clear and easy to understand.“
How well were the satellites found and how long did the satellite system take on average?
„The satellite system took an average of 3 minutes to find the satellites. The advantage is the mobility of the system, through the free positioning of the antenna is a reception always possible.
A clear advantage over fixed on the vehicle mounted systems.“
How do you rate the weight and dimensions of the satellite system Campingman Portable 2?
„The satellite system is not light in total and the antenna is not small. This is important if you want to transport and store the system in the caravan and must pay attention to space and payload.“
How do you rate the price-performance ratio?
„The price-performance ratio is okay, the ratio with a power supply would be optimal.“
Would you recommend the product to others?
„The plant is recommended, but it should be checked in advance whether the plant can be stored and transported in the caravan / motor home. If necessary, the plant can also be transported in the car. In addition, it should be clear that a 12V socket with appropriate power supply is required near the control unit, alternatively a power supply unit must be purchased.“
Overall impression:
„The Mega-Sat makes a good and valuable impression and fulfills the set requirements.“

„Desinger piece“
How easy did you find it to set up the test device?
„simply connect, select satellite and off you go“
How well were the satellites found and how long did the satellite system take on average?
„if you have chosen the right satellite, it was also found quickly, 2 x I had to verstzten the dish by a few meters, because obviously trees or house roofs were in the way. Time to find, I think max. 2 minutes“
How do you rate the weight and dimensions of the satellite system Campingman Portable 2?
„A bit smaller would be good, since the bowl does take up quite a bit of space. That's not a problem if you're only going on short vacations, but it might be if you're going on a longer trip“
How do you rate the price-performance ratio?
„Maybe a bit too expensive for occasional use, but easy to use“
Would you recommend the product to others?
„Yes, you can buy and recommend the plant in any case“
Overall impression:
„The unit is delivered well packed. Too bad that no 230 V adapter / connection cable is included. Otherwise, all is included what you need. The system is easy to run, finds the satellite, at least in Bavaria ;) quite quickly (no foreign use so far - follows only in August) - Can say, so far we are satisfied all around.“

Test report from 20.05.2018
Where was the Megasat satellite system Campingman Portable 2 in use?
„The system was in use at a campsite at the Biggesee. The site is located directly on the lake in a small valley. Here, the system proved its capabilities. The connection was quickly done and thus the system could be quickly put into operation.“
How long could you test the product?
„The plant could be tested for 3 weeks.“
What was the first impression of the satellite system Campingman Portable 2?
„At first I was very surprised by the size. You can immediately see that it is a high quality product“

„The plant looks very futuristic. For my taste, the look is very appealing. You can immediately see that the system is very well made. The control unit also makes a high-quality impression.“
How easy did you find it to set up the test device?
„The commissioning is very simple and therefore very easy to do even for laymen. It is important that all connections have a good connection, then everything is automated and fast.“
How well were the satellites found and how long did the satellite system take on average?
„The satellites were found precisely. The search process took about 3 minutes. As with any satellite system, you have to avoid obstacles, of course. In my case these were trees. However, once you find the right position, the search is fast and precise.“
How do you rate the weight and dimensions of the satellite system Campingman Portable 2?
„Compared to conventional systems, I find the weight of the system completely acceptable, as well as the dimensions. This is a compact product.“
How do you rate the price-performance ratio?

Quality, workmanship and functionality are in good proportion to the price.“
Would you recommend the product to others?
„I would recommend the facility without reservation.“
Overall impression:
„This is a very good product of good quality and very good workmanship with perfect function. The system offers a very nice and attractive appearance and is also very user-friendly
It is a great relief for all those who want to save themselves the annoying search, as it is necessary with conventional satellite systems. Due to the automatic search of the satellites, the system offers a great comfort.“

What was the first impression of the satellite system Campingman Portable 2?
„After receiving the satellite system, I found it very large in the apartment.
However, this size impression changed quickly after I set up the system next to the caravan.“
How do you like the look and workmanship of the satellite system and components?
„I cannot make any statement about the workmanship - without removing the plastic cover. In the user manual, it was expressly pointed out never to turn the system upside down. A picture of the inner workings should possibly be included in the user manual.“
How easy did you find it to set up the test device?
„The cable connection from the antenna to the caravan went quickly, but the connections of the connection cables in the caravan took a little longer.“
How well were the satellites found and how long did the satellite system take on average?

„Weight and dimensions are okay.“
How do you rate the price-performance ratio?
„The quality of the antenna and the control unit probably determine the price. It is difficult for me to make a statement about this.“
Would you recommend the product to others?
„Yes, with the above notes on the 1st connection of the wiring in the caravan.“
Overall impression:
„a SAT-TV system to be recommended.
