    Finally got the FTA dish going... (w/pics)

    Hmm... just thought I'd check. I've been working on bringing a 10' back online for a family member but, so far, it appears to be whipping me more than I'm whipping it. I might have to start up a thread in the C-Band forum and see if you guys have any ideas that I might have overlooked.
