Device soft alarm tone OK.

The device does what it should. A small quiet alarm sound. I am deducting 1 star because the shipping was the best and it took 6 days to receive it.

Pros
  • Super for me
Cons
  • Can cause damage

Good antenna accessories

Easy to connect. I guess it gives you a little more security, but I still lock my playmaker and tripod with a cable and padlock.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Low maintenance

Works very well. in Antennas

You will know when someone tries to unhook and take your dish with this alarm system. It's not too loud, but it's more than enough to wake you up and let you know. worth your money. Ease of installation.

Pros
  • Radio Antennas
Cons
  • Error

Works as described

Received this after purchasing the tailgate. It detects a wire disconnect and alerts you inside your RV that a theft is in progress. One of the reviews I read said it wasn't loud enough. It's loud enough for indoors, you probably won't hear it from outside unless you're standing next to your van, but when you're outside nobody's going to try to figure it out? I've also paired this with Brinks cable and paddle locks for added security.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Very expensive

Pitifully missed!

At first I really didn't think I had to turn off the fan to hear the alarm. Fan? A small 12 volt fan that's quiet enough to keep people sleeping while running at high power. Yes, I think "Sorry not enough" works on this error. I think it was enough that I didn't want to ask for a refund, so I can honestly post as a "Verified Purchase". Save your money and go with what works well. My Australian Kelpie and Desert Eagle need to keep safety in mind.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Crumpled

Now that I've been using this alarm clock for a while, I can say it works great. We did a little testing by unplugging the cable from the bowl and the alarm went off right away. Looking at the TV picture we don't see any difference whether it's plugged in or not, so I'm assuming there's no signal loss. It is connected to a Dish Wally and a Winegard Pathway X2 receiver. The receiver's power supply is connected to a switch, which I turn on after connecting the satellite dish. Makes life easier…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Little things
