Since you already have a crimper and fittings I would do the self install. You can pickup cable staples or clamps real cheap at lowes or home depot. The clamps with long screws will probably work better on the siding. Don't over tighten the screws! The dish should be alright. I've never seen...

Why not ask the LL if it would be ok to do the install yourself? Or see if he/she would be willing to run the line for a small fee. It doesn't hurt to ask.

I found some ku flat panels recently while looking up specs of the openbox s9. They seem to be cheap and readily available in the uk. The biggest one I seen had 4 lnbs. Couldnt find the sat dealers website but was able to find them on ebay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281211376911...

What are you using to unzip? Edit: Just tested with my 8.1 pc. Downloaded and opened without a problem. Opened archive with winrar.

Try downloading with a different browser. A few months ago I had problems with Firefox or IE not being able to download anything successfully. You could also try running the extractor with admin privileges. Right click run as admin. Could also try adjusting compatibility to win 7. Right click...

Went to check out the dish yesterday. It's higher off the ground than expected about 14' to the mount. Didn't get a chance to do a string test and not sure if I'll be able to with the dish so high up. If google is accurate the dish is a 10 footer. Forgot my tape measure :mad. I'm not sure if...

Thanks for all the suggestions. I think we are going to try the controlled fall method if there's enough room. The view from google maps doesn't look good. The yard is very small and narrow. I'm going over today to assess the situation. How heavy would you guess the dish to be? I'm not sure...

Not sure if this is still available. If your in the area might be worth checking out. Free 80's style satellite dish Guilford,NH http://burlington.craigslist.org/zip/4785239699.html

Hello everyone! Getting back into fta and found a big dish. It's fiberglass on a pole about 8' up. How hard is this going to be to get down?

Some older forums I read said they were already switching them for leased 522's. Im thinking about buying a 501/508 on ebay. Does anyone know if there 8psk capable?

They cant even offer the distant network waiver's in my area, maybe some of the premium channels are switching first?

On friday I came home and found a dish network box sitting on my porch. Opened it up and they sent me a dp311 with equipment exchange instructions. At first I thought they're trying to scam me into the receiver lease fee. But I think they're going 8psk soon, and trying to keep customers from...

Is that with a commitment? Hughes Net sends me a card in the mail every month or so offering free equipment and install.

I lost the channels for about 10-20 mins last friday on my 1.2m(first time). Soon after Q went back to a solid 94%. Right now its 88%, usually its lower or bouncing at this time of night.

At 4:48 it started pixelating at 60-69% for a few minutes. Q soon went up to 70, now its bouncing 70-90%. Skys are clear and 98% on other tp's. Edit: Just checked and now its 91%.
