How true!

Here is a method we tried this summer and it seemed to work.

Bedouin Camp, Tumalo State Park | Flickr - Photo Sharing!

Outside temperature was about 31 deg. C (88 deg. F). We could not put the refrigerator vent in the shade, so used a reflector and small fan, and our little fridge was able to provide adequate cooling.

Thanks for the picture Jim. Do you know if it is taller than the previously mounted tv antenna?

Jim, Do you know if the current (old) antenna has a powered amplifier? I believe they do. The current builds still have the old antenna but it seems like it would be an easy upgrade if you really wanted the new one.
