    New Channel Master 84e dishes

    Yes. The website I went on calls it a bracket, but it is the feedhorn that attaches the LNBF to the arm.

    New Channel Master 84e dishes

    The dealer I contacted recommended the Eagle Aspen 270 Ku Band Dual Output Linear LNBF. He sells the refurbished CM dual output single polarity LNBFs and single output dual polarity LNBFs, but they don't come with the LNBF holder. Will the Eagle outperform a good standard LNBF on this dish?

    New Channel Master 84e dishes

    I contacted a dealer who has new CM 84e dishes made from the original CM molds. The new ones are made of hard plastic. Does anyone have any experience with these? The high winds have badly warped two metal 36" dishes in the past two years. Will the CM 84e hold up better? TIA

    Larger Remote available for Mercury II?

    Thanks for the leads on the remotes. The ones Sadoun sent thumbnails of will work with some boxes but not with most of the FTA units. I contacted Hy-Tek Manufacturing who makes those remotes and none that they make have learning capabilities. No joy! But the folks who make the Weemote...

    Gospel Music TV on AMC4

    Has anyone noticed the pixelated picture lately on Gospel Music TV on AMC4 Ku? The signal quality is almost buried on the meter on my Topfield receiver and the other channels I receive on the same transponder look great. Any ideas?

    SatelliteAV Motorized System Giveaway, We Have a Winner!

    Thank you for the give-away. The Mercury II is a great receiver--installed one for my dad last year. Got a Visionsat IV-200 for the church. So I would like to have the Visionsat IV-200 for myself--because of the PVR capabilities.
