What about the other side of the coin; why wouldn't they drop their ad service so folks will have to pay in full to get it at all? Would it be possible to stream to DVR and delay-skip ads?

Do they (tv locals) get those kinds of eyeball fees from streaming as well?

Simply a large round file, worked all around the opening, should take that material down pretty quickly

C140 describes as C-band only with 5G filtering. Looks like the (typical) adjustable scalar. So all you'd need do is just to ditch the new scalar altogether and slip the feed throat into Birdview scalar plate. Might need reaming larger opening. Extend through old scalar the same distance the new...

That was the only dish I knew of that used that fat pole. A 4" sched. 40 would have been well sufficient, especially since it didn't extend that far out of ground, but this was birdview...

That should serve as a proper focal point as long as whatever you're using doesn't have to extend too far toward the dish (over 3") from the mount plate.

I think he's thinking you don't have a usable scalar, but it looks like you do- like the feed & electronics simply unfasten and slip out of it. It's usable & needed, however, just for C-band, unless going to a C or C-Ku feed with its own scalar. If doing Ku only, then removing it altogether, if...

Huh, I've tried to add to threads much younger but am told I don't have the cards...er, privileges

There should be some way to mount a Ku LNBF, which should have its own scalar ring. Can the old C-band scalar be removed or is it integral with the feed support legs?

How again have we determined that the mounting plate's distance from the dish won't work for Ku?

The pic may look like no scalar rings, but Ku-only feeds (and waveguides) are much smaller than C-band or C-Ku feeds. So there's likely a mini scalar there.

Haven't seen one like that. That's a whole can of worms going on there. The scalar is the plate with concentric rings (aka "scalar rings"). I remember way back an explanation for how they work, like they're bouncing signal back into the dish to be better focused on the center/waveguide. The...

Is there still an HBO standalone premium service? Cinemax?

My bet is dual LNBs, and they will be huge pieces, painted in white. But given the lack of H to H mount, it could be early enough to have an LNA and BDC.

Right, I don't see a declination adjuster but if the dish worked originally it should be close to good. Same for the azimuth & elevation if unmoved from before. If that's not the worst actuator arm I've ever seen, it's in the top 10. If intending to have a motorized system I would simply...

I think I remember 10 footers with Birdview. It was a premium system and these were the earlier days before the extra low noise LNBs. Likewise never saw one with a jack. This would definitely need a new arm, and those come with limit switches internal.

Most Birdviews originally used a dual-lnb (c-band) setup so that separate receivers could watch any different of 24 ch's. These were premium systems and often were installed with 2 rx's. Even the mounting post is extra wide in dia. As to the H to H, it should have limit switches already there...

so why doesn't charlie just ditch the pricey sports

Right, what's going on with sling, their streaming service, losing even more than dish, their dbs service? ??

Is that a module that goes into the DiSH rx?

Don't you still need antenna for tablo offair?

It does local ch's...?

If cable can't hold bb subs, it's really cooked

Hm, that whole DPP system was designed to integrate a separate wing LNBF right into the Twin or Triple main LNBF. ViPs never had trouble, surprising hopper would. I would have guessed there's significantly more subs on WA than EA, if only because WA was all they had during their main growth...

They just can't keep all that space segment going like they used to. Adding the EA was premised on them having 10m subs and growing. Now they just can't afford it all to hang onto subs that are regardless dropping daily.
