The Maxview Vu Qube is a portable semi-automatic satellite system that is very easy to use.  The Vu Qube is a compact unit that is easy to carry and store.  When you want to use it, it connects with one or two coax cables to your satellite receiver (available seperately if you don't have one already).  It takes its power from the satellite receiver.  Using the wireless remote control, you set the elevation degree's and then press the right or left arrows to turn the dish toward south.  You can do this from within yoru vehicle, so you can see when a picture appears on the screen you know your locked onto the satellite.  Clever gyroscopic sensors inside the qube can tell when it is not on a level surface, compensating on the remote controls display the elevation angle, so the angle displayed is always correct and not level dependant.  The Vu Qube comes with twin lnb output, so is perfect for running two receivers or running a PVR box such as freesat HDR or Sky+.  Vu Qube works with all HD satellite receivers.

We recently let a customer loose with a Vu Qube to check ease of use.  Unpacking, reading the instructions and connecting it up to a tv and receiver took around 30 minutes.  After pointing out a slight mistake with his interpretation of the display, he had a signal within 30 seconds!  He then took the Vu Qube away with him to try elsewhere and came back a few days later very happy and purchased it.  UPDATE: The same customer has since used his Vu Qube a lot on his boat and had this to say about it:
