    Digiwave 2.4 meter DWD240T

    Anyone know if these are any good? Online for anywhere from 500 - 700. Looks like the ring is the same as my 6 footer so I was thinking I could use the same mount. Thoughts before I try to get one of these? The plan would be to use the old 6 as a dedicated Ku dish, and the 8 for C. Would this...

However they other day they started AT LEAST broadcasting NASA in 16x9 (widescreen) so this is a step in the right direction. They will continue for now to require...

Just wondering if anyone else has lost signal from NASA-TV. For the past year they have been a steady 70% quality...
