ABSTRACT:
An adapter for facilitating the portability of satellite antennas includes a first side adapted for attachment to a satellite base and a second side adapted to releasably engaging a base unit. A plurality of base units are typically attached to desired locations for the satellite antenna, such as a home, recreational vehicle, cabin or boat. By simply releasing the adapter from the base unit, the satellite antenna may be conveniently moved to another desired location. To further facilitate transport, the receiver arm of the satellite antenna can be modified to readily fold inwardly with the release of a pin.
