    Unused BUD Dish? Any value?

    talked to owner I finally got in contact with the owner and she said "just go ahead and take it." I will print out everyones suggestions and plan my next step in taking it down. I like the idea of cutting the pole and leaning it down. Thanks for the suggestions and I will keep you informed.

    Unused BUD Dish? Any value?

    I noticed this BUD in a vacant/for sale lot and I'm considering calling the phone number to inquire about the dish. To me it looks pretty good but I would like a more knowledgeable opinion. How does it look to you? Is it even worth trying to get? The name on it is Winegard. Thanks for all...

    Motorized Help (Which numbers?)

    I choose AMC5@79W 12182 2300. I'm moving dish elevation (up/down) (max 29.5 as stated above) and azimuth (left/right). I'll move by hand then do blind scan.

    Motorized Help (Which numbers?)

    Ok, can you spell it out for me? I'm just not wired for this angle/elevation/compass stuff. What elevation do I use on the dish? If it is 50.1 my dish hits the top of the motor arm (at 29.5). I'd have pics but SD card is full. The motor is set to Latitude 34. Correct?

    New DVR comments

    So what is the word on the new DVR from those who purchased one? Likes, Dislikes? I'm debating on getting the DSR when it comes out. I'm not much into the video recording stuff. If the comments are good/excellent I may consider the DVR.
