    Contest: Enter to Win a GEOSATpro microHD STB and SL1PLL LNBF - Ends 5/31/2013 Midnight PDT

    Some of my favorite summer memories are going camping with my family. We lived about 40 miles from a great state park in South Dakota. Lots of late night by campfiles and bicycling around to meet new friends. I'm gonna buy a toy hauler someday so the wife and I can haul our motorcycles around...

    Birdview Solid Dish w/H-H motor

    This dish picks up S2 signals without difficulty. It also has a 24 pole magnet wheel already installed and the scalar has been drilled out for modern feed-horns to fit. The dishes came from the factory with H-H 180 mounts, and will cover at least 160 degrees of the arc without touching the...

    Birdview Solid Dish w/H-H motor

    I've had my FTA system up-and-running for a couple of years now, and love it. My primary dish is a Birdview perforated dish with H-H motor, scanning C-band and Ku-band satellites from 72°W to 139°W. I also have a dedicated, fixed Ku dish pointed at 30°W. But, I have acquired some extra things...

    I upgraded the battery in mine to the 1800 mwh ones that go in the Epic 4G Touch, and now run the Cyanogen Mod 10.0 ROM on it. No problems to report...

    Kijiji, eBay, and Craigslist dishes for you to take a look at

    I agree. I picked up two Birdview dishes from linuxman a couple of years ago when he was selling off his satellite equipment, and the perforated one with H-H motor is working like a champ! I have the solid Birdview dish just parked on 99°W for now. I should probably sell it off, as it has the...

    Sun Outage Calculator Update

    I did my site survey last Fall, planning ahead for the day I was going to put up a dish for 30°W. I finally got around to putting it up a couple of weeks ago, and the signal comes in great. Glad I did the site survey to verify the location would be optimal.

    30w

    I did a site survey last Fall when the sun was tracking the Clarke Belt satellites. I have a neighbor that has tall pine trees just to my East, but I found a sunny spot on my house that had line-of-sight at the correct time. For me, Hispasat is at 10° above the horizon. For you, it should be...

    30w

    I finally got around to setting up a dedicated dish for Hispasat 1C & 1D. I spent a couple of hours on Sunday putting the J-mount on the house, inverting and aligning the dish, then running the coax cable from the dish to the Digiwave 8x1 switch on the south side of my house. Things are coming...

    Digitrans DTE-7150 and HDD-1000 HD Decoder Combo

    How many members here currently use the Digitrans DTE-7150 and HDD-1000 (or 1100) HD decoder combo? What do you use to move the dish? I'm thinking that this should be the next project for my FTA system. I would slave this setup off of my AZBox Ultra using a GBOX mover. Although if I found a...

    What was your first satellite you got when you started with FTA?

    My first FTA satellite locked was G17 91*W on the 8 1/2 ft. solid Birdview dish, almost 1 year ago, and here is the picture of the meter showing it "locked"...

    Satellite AV Contest - GEOSATpro microHD - Enter to Win - Drawing on 6/11/2012

    Used to spend a week out each year with my G'pa and G'ma on their ranch in Nebraska. Playing in the haystacks - no bails back then for them. We also went fishing out on the farm ponds. Good times...

    Skew Refresher Please

    Interesting! I'm getting ready to set up a Primestar (Channel Master 75E) for 30°W, and had not thought about skewing the dish quite like this. I was just going to skew the LNB. And, skewing the oval dish at 45° could work out even better for my LOS. I could move the dish placement from...

    More Success, But Entire FTA System Temporarily Down

    I'll have to defer the definitive answer to that question to the more knowledgeable members here... but to me, it seems unlikely. I still had power going out to the dish motor from the GBOX, but it was carried on separate wires - not the coax.
