Winegard on GD Solitude

[Wilesste]

I want to install a Winegard Wf2-435 Connect 2.0 antenna for access to satellite internet on a 2018 (ST375RES) Solitude. Can someone tell me where to find a 12 volt line I may tap into or how I may add one to a location on the roof?

Welcome to the forum, Wilesste. I can't answer your specific question regarding the 12v line, but perhaps reading through how I got the Winegard installed in my 315RLTS will give you a few ideas.

Don't miss the update in post 19.

Again, welcome.

Thank you Howard. I read your post but still have a problem finding 12 volt power for the winegard.

Yep--I had the same problem thus why I went with the 120vAC > 12v converter connected to a UPS. Not ideal.

I bet Don Clark (GD CEO) would say the solution is a new Solitude. They come from the factory with the Winegard 360+ (but without the router).

My 2021 Solitude 377 MBS came with 360, NOT 360+. I installed the 360+ and Gateway. I am very pleased with the Cell Data and WiFi.

Dennis, where did you get your 12-volt power source from?

I had it installed during a service call at the dealers..If it is any help the Gateway is in the hall, just outside of the bathroom and the switch is installed on the wall between the loft and bathroom.
