    Antenna height imperative?

    You should be able to just replace the whole mast w/ the top rail tubing(if you use more than 1 piece I recomend self tapping screws on the swagged end). Or you might be able to U- bolt the two size masts together......

    Antenna height imperative?

    Home D or L*wes ....top rail for chain link fences around 1" in diameter and swagged at the end so you can piece together... around 10 bucks for 10 feet. As mentioned your asking for trouble if you go more than 10-15' without support brackets or guide wires.

    Lighten' up w/ the hate-or-ade King I don't want to get into a flaming match with you. BUT I have to express my disapointment in your posts. I actually agree with you that this may get shut down before it gets started. But why such negativity? Many pioneers of new companies, services, and...

    Installed said it's a no go!!

    I use the same one in the picture and it does not come w/ a pole. It is cheaper and works just as good. It looks like Lag anchors in the block using standard lag bolts. I have never had a problem with cracking using lag anchors in block. Though most of the time when I use this mount I use self...

    Direct Tv Ad

    These companies are worse than politicians! It's just another clever phrasing of words. All these companies do it. I am not saying it's right. But what are you gonna do? I know we'll use a clever phrasing of words to make our service look better than theirs. Hence it never stops. If I said it...

    Satellite USA WBS41602NF Question

    Sorry I meant to say it looks like Zinwell 6x16 not 6x8. These type switches must have power hooked up. The power supply is not optional.

    Satellite USA WBS41602NF Question

    I have never used one of this brand. But it looks just like a Zinwell 6x8. By looking at the specs it does have a power supply that has to be plugged in for it to work. It should come with adapter that screws into rf port and other end plugs into an eletrical oulet. You can also use coax cable...

    D* install at boat dock

    Been there / done that..If you install a smaller phase 3 dish(also called 18x20,triplesat,or multisat). You would get about 10 HD channels. This dish would have better tolerance to a floating enviroment. It would have to be realigned from time to time(especailly with drastic water level...

    Just got it installed! Some questions

    Peyton Manning Storms off field after loss

    Teardrops look bigger in HD I think he didn't want a camera in his face to see the tears. I don't think more or less of him because of it. I do believe if the Saints would have lost that Brees would have stayed on the field long enough to shake Mannings hand. Just my 2 cents..

    Just got it installed! Some questions

    Hang in there w/ the DVR . It's pro's totally outweigh the cons IMO. The rebate I was refering to is the discounted rate for the first year. If you register online before activation the rebate is on your first bill. If you wait till after you, will have to submit form and pay a regular bill or...

    Just got it installed! Some questions

    1) The Dvrs are a little slower because of all the functions on it. This is especially the case when first installed. When the receiver is first installed it's steadily downloading information in the background. After about 24 hours the receiver has caught up with info and slowly updates with...

    Satellite USA WBS41602NF Question

    I have replaced more than 1 aftermarket multiswitch that customers have installed that where not "approved". Even it's a good deal..It's a raw deal if you buy it and it doesn't work properly..Now you're out $$$ and still don't have what you need! I would only buy it if you could return if it...

    Satellite USA WBS41602NF Question

    Get a Zinwell Wide-Band 6x8 Your problem is your using a Zinwell 4x8 which is not designed for your dish. It will not pass the Ka band sats through(99,103). You would need a wide band 6x8. Make sure it says Wide band as there was an earlier version Zinwell 6x8. The Zinwell wide band 6x8 does...

    Mounting an OTA antenna

    I would a a recomend a Winegard DS 1111. It work with a batwig style antenna or any other antenna that would fit on top of a standard size satellite bracket. It attaches to the dish without any extra penetrations. Winegard Direct.com - Winegard DS 1111 Antenna Mount for Satellite Dishes...

    Mobile Home Park

    They more than likely won't object to an install if you see dishes around. Most landlords would rather you put it on a pole than mount on the roof..so you should be ok.

    Mobile Home Park

    As mentioned above if you own your trailer and lot you can do what you want as long as the dish is under 1 meter in size. If you live on rental property check with the landlord if they have any antenna/dish restrictions before installing.

    Directv on Big Truck

    Local channels are sent in by what's called a spot beam. This means after traveling out of this beam (or range) you wouldn't be able to pick them up any more. If your a long way away they probally won't work anyway. Like metioned you may get major local networks through an antenna if your tv has...
