    Apt electrolysis

    Ok I have had my Dish up since August 2008 and this is what my sat dish looks like. I am thinking it is the bolts/nuts mixed with the Hawaii's heavy mineral water. Is there anything I can do to stop this from happening? Right now I unplugged my receiver from power and took the dish off the...
