Hi,

At least 15 years ago, I had dish network and I wanted to take a satellite
dish with us camping.  Dish network provided a three foot tripod with a tube
in the center to mount the dish to and a bungee cord hanging down from the
center hooked to a ground screw which looked like  a large cork screw.  It
worked very well and held up in some high winds.
