    This is from Vizio, their sets (and most others) can detect what type of STB is plugged in to an HDMI port. I don't know of any cable or sat service that doesn't require a STB these days. I would like to see OTA broken out from cable/satellite.

    Trouble aiming 61.5

    What channels should you use for testing your DIRECTV system?

    Trying to Find professional services for C Band LNB maintenance in Northern Cal

    No idea. Maybe cost. But I'd like to think, and I admire, some get personal satisfaction from making their own technical stuff especially when it comes to antennas. Why? Just to see if they can do it.

    Using a 12-foot dish should be easy for this task. Note attached that talks about an amateur radio operator who made his own 5-foot dish for the same purpose. Courtesy of July/2024 issue of QST magazine from ARRL.

    EchoStar/Dish raises doubts about 'ability to continue as a going concern'

    That's not why, venture capitalists came in and sold all their assets off to a holding company they controlled and leased it back to Red Lobster. If they go bankrupt they don't care, they still hold all the assets.
