it was a bit hasty to modify like that but I think its better to start with a 32 inch at least.I have a good solid mount anyway and learned some thing.THe WB dish is not a good platform.

I'll skip it. Someday I wiil find a free dish. I sure aint buyin one.

Because I wont know exactly where to put the LNB...I will try this(pic) if it doesnt work I will wait to get a dish ready to go 36 inch..I dont see any for sale used. I will try to edit the TP...that might have been the problem. The reflector on the WB dish is not concave...I hope mounting the...

how about this...I take the reflector off and drill a hole thru it and mount the LNB thru that hole pointed at the middle of the WB dish..?? Also something occurred to me...the X2 mini menu says LNB on/ off 13 v ,18 v....should I use the 13 volt instead of the ON setting...?? And what is that TB...

I have been working on this WB dish thing and was looking forward to gettin it going. I made a sturdy wooden mount and finally hooked everything up today.I set the elev and skew...I dont have any problem pointing my DISH network unit so I have done it before..I adjusted the Azimuth and got...

I needed a piece of coax so I took a scrap piece that came off a longer piece of pre made coax RG6...I had to put one end on it.. When I cut it I noticed that this RG6 had a really skimpy amount of shielding..those strands of metal around the foil... other coax I have cut into had way more of...

heres a question.... if I took a universal LNB in my hand connected to a receiver and TV and slowly moved it across the southern sky would I get any Satellites..??

"ways until I found the focal point. I then locked down the LNB and did some fine adjustments to the dish until I had a surprisingly, very good signal." Very good is something anyway...

here is a question about LNB placement. If you are using a universal LNB on a reflector dish like the WIld Blue. Is there an issue with getting too much of a signal??? On this dish you can place the LNB anywhere on a rail from 3 inches to 12 inches away from the reflector. Do I just use the TV...

Can I use an Android app that does the same thing as a TV when pointing your dish??shows the signal and sat id and all that..

I will look for one used....I like used stuff..

good to know I didnt see RT on the list..must have been an old one.. I might need to get a 36 inch someday...are there any rectangle ones that will work good with FTA KU and C....? a rectangle would fit nicely..

I have one of the Ideal tools...its got blue handles..it says it does RG 59 RG6 and RG 6Q. I have been using it with the Ideal 89-035 F connectors. What other common connectors will work with this tool??

i have one of those terminal tools that installs the coax ends..the ends with the blue plastic rings....can you re use those??? since they are not crimped...

I was looking at the channels for Galaxy 19 and saw that there is no dedicated news station from any American city...no RT also...Is there another FTA satellite that I am likely to get on a smaller 28 inch dish that has some American news from anywhere...??

I figured out a good solution using a thickwalled galv. pipe.Stronger than the WB mast. btw I have some 2 cable copper rg6 75 ohm from the WB install years ago.I can use this for coax for FTA,no?

i need the lnb in the right location....if someone has a Wild Blue setup check the distance between the LNB face and the reflector.. and post it here..

for a -15 skew and FACING the front of the dish...which way do I turn it??? I mean the whole dish...I will mount the LNB straight on.. also I have the LNB sitting in a cradle pointing at the little reflector...I put 3 notches for how far away the front of the LNB is to the middle of the...

If anyone happens to have an Old WB J pipe with the arms rusting away in a junk pile I could use it. I will pay the shipping. THere has to be thousands of them un used from the last 10 years when people got tired of WB overpriced scam.

I have adjusted skew before but thought it had to do with the actual Dish. Now I know its the LNB.It would be more convenient to turn the LNB because of the fit on my homemade LNB holder..that way I could run the coax out the side...if I did that I could keep the skew setting on the bracket at...

I would reinforce all the parts and add 2 arms for stability also.

Can I get a steel pipe adaptor that joins the 2 3/8 " OD WIldblue collar to 1 1/2 inch OD Dish network pipe??

btw on my Amiko LNB there are some markings..an arrow and some notches...does that arrow have to be up or is that just a guide..??

I like free stuff but thanks anyway. btw I was playing around with the mini and found among other things you have to plug in the channel dongle to make the remote work. I was inside and had NO connection to the coax jack...and the first screen was the Sat screen and on top was Galaxy 19. And...

this is what I came up with. A sled that runs inside the rails made of scrap oak. It slides smoothly and I can experiment where it should be exactly.I angled the LNB holder part at about 12 degrees.It seems to point at the sub reflector...I will have to strap the LNB down .... I repurposed the...
