    I'll be back... We're seeing triple digits in PHX and that means A/C is running almost constantly. Bedroom is hot enough as it is! I do want to see what kind of WUs it'll crank out when I get a GTX 670 card in there.

    First FTA receiver?

    CoolSat 4000 I don't still have it, I sold it when I thought the Pansat 3500 was going to be the hot ticket with my mini-bud I currently still have a CoolSat 6000 that only gets used for NASA once and a while (it's been a while).

    I just built an i7-3770 and am folding again to beat up on it some. It seems to be cranking just fine. I'll do the same when I get a discrete GPU added. I'm concidering a GTX 570.

    NextWave Navigator NCC500 Receiver

    It has a badly out dated satellite list but like almost all c-band receivers you set a certain actuator count to a satellite position. I can't remember if mine is still connected to the TV but if it is I'll fire it up tonight for fun.

    If it's like mine was the feedhorn is a C120 flange which begs for a QPF-031!

    Free Sample of the Week - Satellite AV - Ends 9.23.2009

    The first FTA system I ever saw was a C-band setup at work. Our AV guy would dial in the analog feeds for shuttle launches in the late 90s. It didn't take long to find a 'whole lot more' when playing with the unit. I got my first digital FTA box after lurking for a while here. I picked up a...

    almost Cband55's question But

    When my motor was acting up I parked a dish on 97W and piggy-backed my Voom dish on the pole for 119 (Nasa). Today I'd probably park on 101.

    FTA interfeers with OTA?
