    Contest: Enter to Win a GEOSATpro microHD STB and SL1PLL LNBF - Ends 5/31/2013 Midnight PDT

    Great stories all, and surprising to see so many folks from the farm. Born in upstate New York, we used to take our summer vacations at our grandparents farm in eastern Iowa. Later around age 11 we moved to that farm. From baling hay & the sweet smell of alfalfa to raising & showing my prize...

    WildBlue Dish Converted to FTA

    Thanks ke4est. I have a few LNBF's laying around to play with. I'm assuming Lat/Long/Skew settings should be same as for any FTA offset dish....?

    WildBlue Dish Converted to FTA

    Recently picked up a couple of these dishes...one for free the other for $15. Good tinker material. Now that winter's coming will have time to play and see what comes up if anything. If you see this ke4est, what LNB is that in your pictures? Fun stuff eh?

    Special Deal: GEOSATpro microHD - Product Release Special 6/20 - 6/30/2012

    I've had Firefox, Internet Explorer, & Chrome installed for quite some time without a glitch until this. So far, the charge hasn't hit my CC, but did receive an email confirmation on the order. I won't be tempting fate with a 'test' order...better leaving well enough alone and sit waiting...

    Coolsat 6100 firmware

    This looks to be the same file I'm using on two 6100's with good result. Downloaded a copy from Coolsatusa.com in June 2009, tho this site no longer exists, appeared to be the legitimate Canada/USA distributor for Coolsat.

    New Satellite TV and Radio Stations

    I would fully support such a venture. With the vast knowledge base existing on this site alone seems it would be an almost off-the-shelf startup and a promising future. Kind of like what open source Linux or similar efforts have accomplished. Great idea!!!

    Special Free System of the Week Contest Ends 7.7.2008 - Satellite AV

    Probably the most memorable 4th of July was 1982, standing on the second story roof of my newly built home, watching fireworks from two equidistant cites & then enjoying the grand finale's from both venues. No crowds, no traffic! 2nd best part was getting back down off the ladder without...

    Free Receiver of the Week Contest Thread- Satellite AV

    My favorite channel is ARTS, because it's the only channel I get besides CSPAN. Just installed a freebie BUD with a scrounged Toshiba receiver without a remote, so can't set it up properly to get more satellites.
