    Hello Again. Got my dish going after a long break.

    I just checked and my last post to the site was almost ten years ago. In 2010 I setup a motorized dish and GeoSatPro 200 receiver for the first time. I used it heavily for a couple years, but once my kids came along time, and extra money quickly disappeared. Once the kids were a bit older around...

    Sonic Voom Headphones

    I bought them off Amazon for $20.00 two weeks ago. Vendors pop up from time to time who still have them in stock. For the price, I like the quality, and I can finally watch PBS on 125. It also nice it has optical AND coax input. I hooked one to my GeoSatpro and one to my DVD player. Very cool...

    Japan earthquake wildfeeds

    It appears that both ABC Galaxy 28 and NBC AMC 9 are using their uplink channels to carry NHK. Very scary stuff. I hope the seawater lets them cool the reactor.

    The Cord Cutting Conundrum

    I use an OTA Antenna, FTA, and the 8.99 Netflix stream account hooked to my Xbox360. I made a custom TitanTV schedule for my OTA channels (from 100 miles away) and my FTA channels, and find that most days there is more on than I want to watch or have time for. Combine that with my ongoing...

    Sat Meter

    So I now know why I bought a $15.00 sat meter when I bought my dish. During dish setup, I had not used it as I ended up bringing a receiver and tv up with me. However today I realized the dish was out of wack. Man once you are on the arc, it makes fine tuning a breeze. What a time saver in the...

    Is Radio Shack hopeless for this hobby, or is it just mine?

    Here in Middlebury we have a small radio shack section of our locally owned hardware store (Martins by the way) As they are a family owned business, the guy in the shack section actually knows what he is talking about. You can still get parts from the part drawers, and they mix in various parts...

    CONTEST - Enter to Win: GEOSATpro DVR1100c w/15GB HDD, 90cm Dish - Complete System

    My best fall memories were that the summer harvest was done on our dairy farm, and the extra work could slow down for a bit. (although we milked more cows in the winter, fortunately I only had to milk on weekends) It was also time for Douglas Orchards to start pressing cider, and to get out our...

    pics of the dish farm...post yours too :)

    Finally got around to taking photos of the dish I installed in March. This is my first dish, although my flat roof is perfect for a dish farm, so I hope to install a Mini BUD when I get the cash. Also included is the permanent ladder I built into the house to access the roof for tweaking. For...

    Bloopers and Horseplay on Today Show

    The pre-show on sundays is always good. Jenna likes to sing Blink 182 with the swear words really quiet. Very funny.
