That is a great idea. My only problem is the receiver is about 1/4" too wide for the opening. I would have to cut the opening to even get it in. I think I will take it out there and try to do a test...

It is a visual illusion. It is very close but does not touch. We also bring the awning in when it gets windy. If we are under trees I normally won't even extend it.
