    new 1.2 meter dish and 12 footer

    Do you have a file or sandpaper available? A grinder is just a high speed substitute for these. A dremel tool would work. Plenty of options to remove metal. Sliding the socket or nut driver on concrete would even work. I would chuck an extension and the socket onto my electric drill and get at...

    Amiko A3 still usable?

    Thanks for the responses. I will try with the Amiko and see if I think a newer function filled receiver can improve on my experience. Sent from my SM-N975U using the SatelliteGuys app!

    Question about a QAM modulator for a headend

    I don't use this device and I see nobody else has any knowledge of it or is willing to share knowledge. I expect that it is more of the former. There is a document on the Cisco web site that looks to define installation and operation of this device. Search for file name 78-718866-01_D.pdf It...

    Amiko A3 still usable?

    I have a sexy red A3 I got when they were first released. It has never been updated and has never been hooked to a dish. It was powered up solely to prove it could boot. I have some questions that I know this group can answer. Is this still a capable receiver by today's standards? Is newer...

    You guys were right a couple years ago

    I'm still a member there. I don't go there often. Folks here are much more helpful and friendly. Current $$ situation has kept me from supporting the site, but I still consider it each year. I have no equipment set up right now, but have started the hunt for reflectors in serviceable condition...

    motorola 4 DTV

    These things can be repaired if you have some electronics experience. There are some fuses inside as well as other components you can replace if you have donor sources. This is a hobby, just like electronics repair can be. Waylew is on track with his suggestion. The mover portion of these...

    WSI Vbox X Relay Stuck??

    Only problem with the wick is that fine traces will lift off the board if your iron is too hot. Just have to be careful.

    Andrews 4,6m

    My signals in St. Louis, Missouri have been reduced. Local operators have blamed signal loss in this area on someone calling themselves Rima. I am insanely jealous of what you have acquired and so expertly assembled. I am not worthy. Keep up the excellent posts and photos.

    Looking for 100 cm dish southern indiana

    I bought that one from them a couple years ago. The Winegard is a top quality reflector. They did chintz out on the LNBF mount, but it is sturdy for a standard dual output LNBF. I was using an Invacom Quad initially and that is about the heaviest LNBF out there. I motorized it using a DG380...

    Lantern Update from Syed Karim, Outernet CEO

    The one way service for underserved areas was noble and worth my support. I agree that even simple 2 way via satellite is opening a huge can of worms. Can you spell FCC regulation? What will stop someone from pointing at the wrong sat and creating interference? Accidentally or deliberately...

    T90 Toroidal Dish

    Not worth it if you are concerned with liability. What part of town are you looking in. It is a large metro area and I know a good portion of it.

    T90 Toroidal Dish

    Plenty available in the St. Louis area. Just need to ask about the ones on the abandoned gas stations and car dealers.

    KU V-SAT Dish?

    The worst they can say is no. That answer has never hurt my feelings. I think those dishes could be awesome for a multi feed setup if you are patient.

    Another Slimline conversion

    When I tried this, the foil tape caught the wind and I was scroogled. Ended up using some flashing instead of the foil tape. Great concept! Locate the focal of original feed and you are golden!

    1.8 meter Prodelin

    The fan is obviously being used to circulate air on a hot spot of the built up roof:biggrin. I thought it was a blown over dish until i zoomed in.
