I would like to enter the contest. I put up my first ku band dish in the 4DTV days to get the services on 99W over 20 years ago. Later when those channels went back to C band I bought a Fortec Lifetime Ultra receiver and repointed over to 123W for the RTN channels around 2009. I have...

I have one of those Farmall Cubs, I use it around the property all the time.

Found it

I just powered mine on for the first time in years. I don't see an LNBF power setting.

Just as clucas stated... For the learning curve, I would practice the dish aiming and tweaking at ground level. Perhaps setup the dish on a pallet or some object that is sturdy and not going to move within the clear view of the sky and elevation. Not to add to confusion but just for something...

I have an Amiko mini HD265 model that I blind scan with. When it finds TPs without video or audio such as data, it displays failed during the scanning step among the channels it successfully logs. Is that what you find?

In the past year I've ordered a couple of ham radio related things from eBay that never shipped after weeks. After getting Ebay involved to get refunds, the sellers admitted they didn't even have what they were offering for sale. These were supposed US based sellers but who knows. One seller...

I have a 6' dish pointed at 113W for several years now for that TP and it's possible but only under perfect clear weather. I watch Rev'n by satellite because my local OTA channel shares it with 8 other subchannels.

I have a portable 6' C band dish mounted to a pallet. I pointed it more than once under a full moon by marking the shadow of the feedhorn on the dish and quickly dragging it around the yard to realign it to the same position.

Just arrived home and my prize was waiting in the mailbox. Thanks again Brian, you're the best!

I will take it, sorry for the wording.

Brian, I'm interested in the Dr. HD 1000S+ meter.

I disconnect everything, satellite, TV antenna, ham radio gear, etc. when storms are forecast after a nearby lightning strike destroyed many household items about 15 years ago. It even ruined the utility kw/h meter on the house.

Rodents caused these issues on vehicles I had to deal with. Definitely a heath hazard as well if they gain entrance to the HVAC ventilation system.

Using the factory type LNB with the scalar designed for the shape of the dish would be the best solution for proper illumination of the feed. The dishes I have came with LNBs with separate V and H inputs. I just use typical LNBFs on my Primestar dishes and I fabricated a simple mount with a...

iBoston I don't recall ever seeing a SatMaximum satellite dish, where did you get it?

I would agree, it's a great dish. I have one also.

My Farmall Cub is a 1955, starts easily with the crank if needed. Completely original and runs great. The Ford 2N is a 1947 model. Engine rebuilt and converted to 12 volt electrical system.

Nice tractor. I've had mine since 1982. I used it for 5 hours last Saturday and enjoyed every minute of it.

Although I have never needed any technical support for any of the receivers or LNBFs I have purchased from Titanium over the years, I see his devotion the hobby here on a daily basis. I've never experienced any issues with any of his products but I see how he stands behinds his business in...

My local PBS, WMHT from Albany NY has been gone also since earlier this month.

There's a very good reason why people like those 2 receivers. I have one of each and highly recommend either one. It depends on your needs. Also, plenty of support from the group here.

I want to win a Free K1Plus STB! Thanks for the contest, Brian.

In the early days of ATSC before I had a capable TV, I used a decommissioned Voom satellite receiver that a built in separate digital OTA tuner for viewing the digital subchannels. It wasn't that great. The aforementioned WRGB from Albany, NY would lock the unit up requiring a reboot if selected.

While I agree with the other members about starting out with a dish that is too small is probably not the best approach, it certainly is possible. Keep in mind, I have been pointing satellite dishes since 1988, I have a barn full of all sorts of dishes, I have a nice meter for aiming and...
