    Is Stars still alive?

    Jared: Thank you. Sorry I didn't see your postings in other boards. I don't frequent them much anymore and would I have known you anyway? :D

    Is Stars still alive?

    None since we learned it's not legal. Non-profits can not do anything, especially forming alliances, that would benefit it's members financially over competing companies. None. Absolutely illegal for a non-profit to negotiate rates and work for it's members over other companies in a like...

    Sorry Scott, Rob didn't want it either. Something about sitting in front of the fan and getting sh*t thrown at him all day. Next in line, willing to serve, were Doc and Downy.

    So Scott, you want me to resign. Who would you like to see take my place? Before you answer, be sure it's 1. someone that was elected by the members and 2. someone that is willing to serve.

    They were the next highest vote-getters. Technically, the by-laws say... "Vacancies in the Board of Directors shall be filled by a vote of the majority of the remaining members of the Board of Directors for the balance of the year." So we are guilty of allowing the members voting results...

    Come on, tell the truth Jeff. First of all, there is no way to "block" anyone with the program. Secondly, I remove very little. About all I remove is the short "X sucks" posts and only if it's a repeat from the same person. Thirdly, I never ever remove YOUR posts... I just add your IP address to...

    Jeff Rich, you are such a liar. Here is Jeff's "polite" e-mail. No name given, but it was easy to figure out it was Jeff Rich. My reply... Jeff's reply... And my reply... Jeff's intelligent reply to that... And today I get an e-mail from a another address... Yes...

    No Ground Wire On New Dish Installation

    Most houses around here you'll see a #6 or #4 bare twisted copper wire going from inside the house/basement to the outside to the ground rod. The top of the rod should be a few inches above ground, but they can get covered up over time or if they use mulch for landscaping. If you look at your...

    No Ground Wire On New Dish Installation

    Not true. Hacks don't; real professional installers do. The problem is, as expenses and requirements have skyrocketed and rates have sunk to record lows, professional installers stopped doing residential installations. Oh and let's not forget companies now charging back installers $100 on $60...

    Skew on a Single LMB?

    xMike's dish a a round dish with a single LNB. There is NO skew adjustment on it because there is NO skew needed. In your receiver menu, this would be called the Dish 300. What do you understand to be a 500 Dish system as mentioned in Camping World? The Dish500 is a dish. It's DishNet's twin...

    No Ground Wire On New Dish Installation

    If the coax cables coming from the dish are connected to the ground block, and the ground block is grounded to the house ground, then technically (electrically) it is grounded. It may not be to someone's interpretation of the NEC or the providers requirements, but it is grounded. But your post...
