Jimmy You should know by now that they are not selling that sort of stuffnoit to mention that is a far ride from here. If you are silly enough to waste that much money in fuel to take such a chance that is your call. I don't cross that bridge unless its of utmost importance. You know as well as...

Yes but... I have a new Buzz unit in shipping right now on its way. I bought three receivers on ebay, the first was the Fortec, arrived dead and would not function, Tron looked it over very well and confirmed my conclusions that it was electronically dead via a logic problem. The...

Correct I bought that one because I have a dish farm so plenty dishes to point and no receivers. I have that 8 foot I want to run a analog c/Ku band with and the digital for that as well as the smaller dishes. i bought that one new which has not arrived but the two used one I bought on ebay...

Thanks! Million thanks! The OLD ones are the good ones for analog signals, old school manual tuning on the front face.

Ok.. where Where do I get one?

No good here Most of if not all the thrift stores here are either 1) gone completely- physically gone or 2) closed down because they had 12 foot of water in them. Its not a thrift store heaven here any more. I can't even give away to good will or red white and blue our old chothes that...

Looking for analog receivers I need a decent analog C and Ku receiver.

Gold sellers? I am looking for inexpensive C/Ku Analog receivers and one mroe digital receiver. Cheap as I am not made of cash these days. Please point me in the right direction

Thanks guys The person I bought it from said it is shipping Fedex so it should be here. I am anxious to see what comes, the other C band receiver is on its way as well. I have to find the money now to get the other stuff I need to finish the pole this big dish is going up onto. I think the...

Wow! Iceburg is the man! I have tron coming over to help me with all this, he is helping me build my BUD system too, I have a specially designed pole to mount the BUD on that should withstand hurricanes. Filled with cement, (4) 1 square foot steel foot pads that are sunk into a concrete slab...

Can anyone explain what all this means please since I am new to this. My Fortec Lifetime Ultra arrived and it arrived dead so I bought another receiver in its place. The receiver I bought is Model No.: BUZZ S2010F - did I do good? So what does the below mean? I do not know anything about all...

Got it We ordered 100 foot last night on ebay and are splitting it with someone in my neighborhood. It was like 50 bucks to the door, a very good deal for C&Ku Band Ribbon Cable. RG6 too. Not bad..

Current ? How much current is going to the mover motor? It is important because cat5 will burn up if its too much.

Great a local We worked search and rescue during the storm here, a bit distracted with everything till recently. I am in Metairie by the way. If you want, let me know when you are coming down this way, you need to be careful where you dig, theres a lot of military out there that is...
