    Thats why you said get a good servo...feedhorn. Would i buy the servo, or just a feedhorn with a good one. Thats saying i don't get a working feedhorn, they seem like the most damaged part other than motor. I think the lnbs will still be working because they are inside the covering. I hope they...

    Exactly, if i picked up a few old dishes along the road (ofcourse w/ permission) what new things would I have to buy assuming certain parts are still useable. (I don't think i'll buy all the extra, just i guess the 4DTV and Digital FTA Receiver to get the largest selection w/o going broke.

    K, time to remove a few from a list to show my parents as we won't be getting 4DTV for awhile, though if i did get a bud we'd still pick up a good deal of MPEG c band stuff. Update. Does it have to say Digicipher for each channel it says, or when it says digiciper in one box it counts for...

    Whats the best way to get a BUD for free. I have seen about five good condition BUDs along I-10, and i know i could take atleast 3 of them and then use parts to get a stable dish, and tho i will have to get a receiver and coax. I may not have to get everything else. (also i may end up having to...
