for a few hours tonight it was back up in the 90s, then it just dropped in the 30s again. satellite problems I wonder??

This morning PBS is down in the 30s, we have a few clouds but not that many. Anybody else having problems? or did the wind smack my dish around?

Wow...sounds alot more complicated than Ku. I guess i would be interested in the easiest cheapest setup to get started :) Probably just a staionary dish at first. I have been reading here alot but it is still a bit overwhelming, all new terms and technology. So should I get an old analog...

I just checked Montana and its down in the 40s again :O Whats going on? anybody else drop?

Hey guys, I have a great Ku setup and want to go c band. My friend just gave me a BUD, what else do I need to just get started? Can my Fortec Ultra be used for it? Not for subs, just FTA. can the lnb on the BUD be used or do I need some conversion kit?? Thanks!

yeah, mines back up into the 90s also, must have been sunspots or something :P

Seems to have dropped down to the high 50s here. Anybody else drop??

Isn't al manar on IA5 also??

went out and tweaked the lnb and WOW :eek: Anybody else notice a jump?

Why I remember back in my day (hick up my pants and spit) the mere mention of a hacked bin would get you throw off the board. :)

Nobody heard of this thing??

Congrats on the fast setup :) The satellite gods must have been smiling on you that day.

only way I could talk the wife into putting one up =)

I was window shopping at the Sadoun website (hey...don't laugh) and came across an RV setup with a "digital magic sensor unit" to help installation. What exactly is this unit and what does it do?? Anybody know??

Where would I find a list of these companies??

I use my fortec 1.2 for a clothes line. I just pan from east to west real fast, dries those jeans in a hurry.

Motor Elevation should be 36 Your dish elevation should be 39 24 is for the HH100, I believe you said HH90. You can go to the link below to double check. http://www.sadoun.com/Sat/Installation/STAB-Installation-Angles.htm Make sure your skew is at 0, set the lnb stright up and down, no...

I was noticing that some of the sats on the European list have 2 numbers, like; AMC15 255E or 105W and G10 is also listed. 237E or 123W so I know the 123W is where I pick it up, whats with the other numbers? Why can they get G10 and we can't get AMC15? Is it all just a footprint issue...

So what is involved with starting an FTA channel? obviously money, but just what else is involved? Who would you pitch to? How would you get a channel on G10 or some other american sat?? Anybody know?

I saw that pic in the new issue of Tele-Sat. looks like some of those dishes have been around a LONG time, either that or they just had the sh*t bombed out of them...not sure which. I thought my neighbor would complain about my fledgling dishfarm, guess if he does I'll just show him that...

The magazine had a listing of what satellites were available and the channels on them. The list went on and on and on. Literally HUNDREDS. I think it would be great if FTA became the place for real specialty markets, like an all horror movie channel, or all western, that kind of thing. I...

I was just at the book store thumbing through a copy of Sat. Internation and WOW are we ever on the short end of the FTA stick here in the states. They have Hundreds and Hundreds of channels. I did some a few really cool products u=in that issue. Wonder if FTA will ever catch on with that kind...

Here is how I got my pole level; I went to the local DN store and told them I needed to buy one of those little level things that snaps down inside the pole. Has a level bubble and everything built right in. I just snapped that down in the top of my pole and was I ever horrified to see what the...

Don't feel too bad guy, My first 1.2 was on a small tripod with no weight, first gust of wind knocked it over and bent the sh*t out of it =) Live and learn.

If your conscious starts getting to you, just box it up and I'll come over and take that filthy dish off your hands :)
