One corner of my dish is a little bent from being knocked over by the win a while back :/ How should I bend it back? It was recommended by another member that I place a towel over the area and then bend it back with plyers so as not to scratch the reflective coating. Would doing this be okay?

I just received my new C-Band LNBF in the mail today. When I took it out of the package, I realized I wasn't sure how to put it together. I have the "Orion C-Band CLNBF1LP" LNBF. It came with a feedhorn and the LNB. However, there are notches on the LNB that say "34, 36, 38, 40, 42". What...

Hello. I picked up an old BUD this week in hopes of using it to pick up FTA sturff. However, I am not very familiar with some of the terminology and equipment needed for Ku band. My BUD has an azel mount (although it can easily be moved around by lifting the mount itself and turning it) which...
