    What to do with old satellite gear?

    Chris's stuff is what I posted in the Craigslist/Kijiji/etc thread. A lot of C-band stuff, a lot of it still good, some parts probably best left in the 80's. Lots of Chaparral feedhorns/LNBs, a good collection of actuators, a mix of metal and fiberglass dishes. If I had a cool landlord, I...

    Kijiji, eBay, and Craigslist dishes for you to take a look at

    Local guy in Missoula, MT has a bunch of actuators, c-band dishes, Ku band dishes, lnb(f)s, etc in the Rattlesnake area. Also a bunch of Model A parts. You can contact his nephew on instragram, unclemissoula, or message me and I'll see if he's okay with a phone call.

    Problem to get 8PSK Freqs by DVB S2 Card

    Can you adjust the dish and watch the screen, or do you have a meter to connect at the dish? A tiny shift in the position of the dish can make or break an 8PSK signal.

    Getting back into the FTA game

    I was surprised to see that on Lyngsat. I moved from GJ to here in January. The local CBS station is good at screwing up commercials and cutting off bits of the Late Show, so I may record from that instead. If I can't get Montana PBS on the dish but everything else is rock solid, I may *gasp*...

    Getting back into the FTA game

    Curious, what big changes have there been (if any) in Ku band over the past year? I'll be adding a second dish soon, but don't want to waste too much time and effort. I saw some NBC feeds went IP recently. Is the four-channel NBC mux still there on 103? ABC still on 91w?

    Getting back into the FTA game

    It's been a year of vague non-answers from my landlord, so I decided to say "heck with it" and put up my dish. I'm on the south side of Missoula, MT, where the hills block my signal for Montana PBS OTA. For now I've had an antenna on my porch (north facing) to get KSPS (Spokane PBS) plus the...

    Pet Thread.

    Torties are great. We have a ten pound sack of potatoes named Jeannie who still has a kitten face at nine years old. My wife got her off of Craigslist about a week after we moved in together. "If you can catch her, you can keep her". We also have Nooblet (tux) and Casey (calico), who both...

    How to delete ads in the browser?

    I pay here to help keep the site going. Everywhere else, I have a mix of AdBlockPlus and ScriptSafe. The internet is a terrible mess without them. So many ads, massive amounts of java and other crap all trying to load at once, commercials on youtube, all blocked. A couple places I won't...

    New apartment, new dish setup

    Welp... nothing yet. Apparently there are some big maintenance issues at the landlord's other property, so the maintenance guy should be running the cable some time this week. Wife is impatiently waiting for 125W. The antenna gives us the occasional blip on KSPS, and our building plus a hill...

    Pandora Now launches today at 2:00 PM EST

    Interesting. I wonder if that's why Pandora has a few new options (at least through the browser) to customize your stations.
