    Dunno... it wasnt 100% daylight when I looked, but I did clip/compress these myself. If I get home early, I'll definetely take some pictures.

    Well I got home and checked it out... just the coax somehow got unscrewed from the antenna. I might be crazy at times, but there is no way am getting on the roof with 70mph winds (cats land on their feet, not me). And to cap off my night, the dish got tossed too by the wind.

    Ended up playing Yatzee on Ipad and talking to the spouse all evening.

    Cheers, K

    It works best if the DISH itself is made of duct ape.
