    Great stories all, and surprising to see so many folks from the farm. Born in upstate New York, we used to take our summer vacations at our grandparents farm in eastern Iowa. Later around age 11 we moved to that farm. From baling hay & the sweet smell of alfalfa to raising & showing my prize...

    WildBlue Dish Converted to FTA

    Thanks ke4est. I have a few LNBF's laying around to play with. I'm assuming Lat/Long/Skew settings should be same as for any FTA offset dish....?

    WildBlue Dish Converted to FTA

    Recently picked up a couple of these dishes...one for free the other for $15. Good tinker material. Now that winter's coming will have time to play and see what comes up if anything. If you see this ke4est, what LNB is that in your pictures? Fun stuff eh?

    GEOSATpro Menu Language Selection

    Turned on my microHD this morning and found the entire menu diplays corrupted with strange foreign letters. Russian? Greek? In short, it's totally unusable and tried a couple fixes to no avail. Attempt 1) Loaded a thumb drive with my backup settings I'd saved about 4 weeks ago...

    Special Deal: GEOSATpro microHD - Product Release Special 6/20 - 6/30/2012

    I've had Firefox, Internet Explorer, & Chrome installed for quite some time without a glitch until this. So far, the charge hasn't hit my CC, but did receive an email confirmation on the order. I won't be tempting fate with a 'test' order...better leaving well enough alone and sit waiting...
