    Thanks for the feedback. You guys are way ahead of me, so I'm not sure about all the terms. I've been working with Ku band systems, setting them up for people on G19 for a long time. I have one of my 36" dishes pointed at G19 and another at AMC-6 for the NBC feeds. I've tried to help a...

    Didn't see all the posts until after I sent the first set of photos. I would like to use a bigger dish, but these look like they might be hard to adapt to a motor, like phlatwound said.

    It's 92 inches. Including some photos of it front and back, as well as one of the two bigger dishes. I couldn't find a brand name. Also have a photo of the SuperJack II+HQ that came on my first dish. I don't know it's function or if it can be used. If the 92 inch dish will do most of what...

    Still in the learning phase here. . . The 92" dish I referenced above is pretty rough looking and missing over half of the mesh. I don't have mesh to replace what it needs, and someone recommended I get a 10-12 ft. dish that will pick up signals better. I've been looking. I live in a small...

    Have acquired a 92" DynaMesh dish with a SuperJack II Actuator attached. I want to refurbish it. Half of the mesh is missing and what is there needs replaced. Where can I get the mesh? From what I've read, I won't use the actuator with the MicroHD receiver I plan to purchase. Were those used to...

    Will the larger C-band dish pick up Ku, too?

    Didn't know that a Ku receiver could also get C-band. I've been reading about it and know where there's a large dish that looks like its idle. Hmmmm. . .sounds interesting! I may need to pay those folks a visit.

    For a long time, I've been setting up FTA systems for friends to help them get programs on G19. I've learned a lot about it by hit and miss, but haven't ever discussed the technical aspects with anyone, so some of the information referred to here is over my head. We've moved to a more remote...
