Let me give some values for the sizes of these things, then I will make some sort of diagram. 1  Radius of the Sun: 6.95 x 108 m. 2  Radius of the Earth: 6.38 x 106 m. 3  Orbital radius of the Earth around the Sun: 1.5 x 1011 4  m. Radius of the moon: 1.7 x 106 5  m. Orbital radius of the Moon around the Earth: 3.48 x 108  m.
ANOTHER Point of Contention: On August 15, 2016 I paid HughesNet $168.98 for installation of satellite and modem. I paid the first monthly bill for 10 gigs of internet service each month for $59.00 (plus taxes) which came to over $83.
DataStorm G75 and Faster Options. If you want faster RV satellite internet, the next step up is the DataStorm G75. With this dish, you can choose from other service providers, besides HughesNet. The cost is around $1400 more than the G74 and service plans start at $79.99 per month. If you want even faster RV internet, I hope you won the lottery - the next step up is a MotoSAT Datastorm XF-2 or XF-3 - it will cost you over $10K installed.
