I'm willing to send things that I have no use for off to a good home. But, right now I have many number 1 priorities, and I'm not sure what the shipping would be like for items of these size from my location. Anyone who might be interested can research the best means of getting them from...

Thank you very much. I appreciate the response. I will add them to the scrap metal pile.

As I have a lot of spare time right now, and much more time than money, I am again looking through the dishes I acquired a few years ago to determine what might be usable to install. The images posted here are the LNBF/feed related items from three different BUD's. I have not had much success...

If the dish is no longer in active use, and/or the homeowner doesn't mind you repointing the dish, search the forum for some of the discussions about four degree apart sats. For temporary use a FTA receiver and that dish should get you 97/101 with minimal fiddling. Edit - DOH! - Been out of...

Go to know! You're encouraging me to put mine up... :-)

Looking at the picture of your yard, you probably have at least 3 1/2 feet of undisturbed clayey silt or silty clay. Pretty good ratio for a 10 foot pole. Usually the developers strip off the 18 to 24 inches of good topsoil, then put back 4 to 6 inches. If you follow the recommendations from the...

Just my opinion from having lived in this area for 60 years. Dug many post holes, dealt with frozen water/waste pipes here at the cabin, and done some environmental well drilling throughout the province during my last career. For a 12 foot pole, a 4 foot depth is a reasonable decision in the...

Just got back into reading things on this site recently. Thought I should jump in on this thread before you spend too much time sanding and painting... I never did get that dish mounted, and it is still in my yard near Pigeon Lake. If you want to come pick it up, you might be able to save...

Is Firefox still causing you grief with the ftalistings website? If so, I suspect it could be a problem with an extension or javascript. Try loading Firefox in safe mode, then go to the ftalistings site and see what happens. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode#Linux

I would be very pleased to win a C1 PLL-lite which I would hope to try out before the snow flies for the winter.

Are you on good terms with your neighbour? And, are the chain link fence posts concreted in?

One of the regular posters on the Digital Home Canada web site currently has an ad in the For Sale section of that site advertising 1 meter Channel Master's for 50.00. He's located in Newmarket. Comparing a 1 meter to 1.2 meter dish doesn't sound like much difference, but the 1.2 is almost 50%...

Thank you for this. It is great to get some actual data from my part of the continent. According to Satbeams my location is in the same EIRP level footprint for 1/2 of the sats you've listed. Getting approval from the boss to plant one of the BUD's I harvested last summer in the back yard has...

What I want to know is where I can watch the Tour on Sheep Cam. http://www.engadget.com/2014/07/03/sony-sheep-tour-de-france/ :oldsmile2

Next time someone floats the idea that the Turks and Caicos becomes a Canadian territory we need to have a referendum.

The website is hosted and registered in Panama. Nothing wrong with that, but it seems a little strange for a business that says it ships from Toronto or Buffalo.

Dr. Power Surge-Sat posted on another site that rtpi had an uplink problem overnight.

I would like spring to arrive so that I can install the nice white solid BUD I found last summer. The mount for the dish is in front of the spruce tree in this picture. Let's play "find the dish". A Titanium C-band PLL LNBF would be a great match when (if?) the snow melts.

Yep, bought the package for the motor.

'evening, This is kind of a zombie thread but I thought I would ask the question. I acquired a Captiveworks 800s as part of a used deal with a dish and motor. I don't really expect to use the receiver given the other collection of hardware I have but while checking to see if I had the latest...

Channel Master fibreglass dishes have become Raven and Andrew along the way. The naming convention is 1.8 metre - type 180, 1.2 metre - type 120, etc. Try searching for Andrew type 110 dish, or Raven type 110 dish. The PDF at this link might help you somewhat -...

TTSE, Seeing where you live, you should be able to pick up all the materials you need at your local marine chandlery. If you know anyone who does sailboat maintenance they may be able to fix that for you.

A couple of things to investigate in advance that might help when it comes time to try finding a new location. Ask your ISP what is the maximum length of cable they will support from the device outside to wherever you need to terminate it at a device inside. Ethernet is 330 feet but this may...

It looks like Brian's initial thoughts were correct. Your internet is operating at 3.65GHz.

I've probably just confused things with my previous post when I wrote router/gateway, sorry. Typically with most Wireless Internet Service Providers, there will be a box of some kind outside, either on a tripod on the roof or attached to a mount on the side wall of your building. Then, from...
