When I look back at some of those prices I wonder how people were able to afford it. A quality stereo was $500 to $1000 in the late 70s yet the average wage was less than $8 per hour.
These old catalogs make great shopping lists for the summer yard sales
C-band: 4 foot VSAT conversion on 99w
Ku-band: 40x30 inch Primestar on 97w, Dish 500 conversion on 83w, 28x26 inch Wildblue conversion on 30w,
