    I sure will Iceberg. My wife told me 1 box got delivered this afternoon. I wonder if the LNBF is in the same box or if it will be shipped separate.

    My wife wrote me and said:

    The guy that delivered the satellite dish was funny. When I told him what it was he looked up and saw the 6-footer in the garage and said, "this little box has one of those in it??" and I told him yes, except that this one was bigger. He couldn't stop laughing because he was so amazed

    ikki, do you notice much difference in reception between the six foot and eight footer? I've got a motorized six and notice that I loose 87w and 89w on the eastern end and 135w on the far west. Everything else is pretty good except for a few weak ones on 121w. I think the 6' dish is too small for the stuff at either end maybe. Just curious what you've experimented with. Blind

    Rest In Peace Charlie.(10/12/29)-(4/26/11) Dad, you taught me how to use electrical tape and use coax fittings. I and my FTA hobby thank you!

    I can get 135W from Toronto fine with the motorized 6 footer but with very low levels though. The 8 footer for the most part will help you with adjacent interference probably.

    HD, probable tree issues for me too. 131W and 133W are fine. Elevation is too low to try 137 etc...I'd be at the middle of trees across the road. Dang neighbors trees! Blind
