A better option than going by the other vans is to see where the locals point their aerials if this is possible. It will also give you a clue as to whether the aerial should be horizontal or turned on its side (for vertical signals, that are transmitted in some areas.)

Any advice on on these. For tuning my aerial to the best direction for a signal.
I've always just looked around the campsite to see where everyone else's aerial is trained, and wondered about a signal finder.
I have a Sat Dish as well and already have two Sattelite Finder gizmos.
Now I have not tried using one of those on the ordinary aerial will that work maybe ?

Hi there guys, if you have a smart phone like me you can get a app for free called Antenna Mate, works 100% for me.
