Black to match all my other gear.

My father picked up a Manhatten 1000 from Skyvision around '02 to go with the $50 12' used C-Band setup I put in for him around '98. I struggled for a long time trying to get OLN for him for some reason, as that was the only reason he bought it. Hundreds of other channels came in fine. While...

I was only 7 years old then, but remember that storm like it was yesterday!

Other video format reception and blind scan features would be the primary driver influencing my purchase, however I have these thoughts. No display adds the perception of cheap, that as much I hate to admit, I would be influenced by. Maybe it was because my first Uniden UST-9000 showed...

This has been going on forever. I remember the C-Band channel in the early 90s that sold the "ice" LNBs. The difference is, the prices we are discussing here are an order of magnitude less than they were back then!

Yep, I was talking about the auction. Still on the cautious side about citing anything found in this forum based on the rules. I'm curious about how you are extracting those data on the feeds? I probably haven't found the good stuff yet, but out of all the "published" channels on Ku DVB, the...

I was actually just able to do some back to back comparisons with some SD feeds on 99W with their 720P counterparts on DirecTV. For the most part, it was really hard to tell the difference between the two. These are hands down the best feeds I have found yet though (quality and content)...

Thanks! The motor is a DG280. Poor choice of words on my part in regards to alignment. What I really meant is, the dish can move around a significant amount with the signal appearing to stay near maximum. As expected, there is far less "focus" than there is with a BUD. When I first felt the...

Hello all, I've been lurking around here for a while now. I had a 7.5' Perfect 10 dish that was used for C Band from the early 90's to about 2005. We had a huge hail storm come through, dish got destroyed, and I ended up going with DirecTV as the future of 4DTV didn't look good even back then...

Thanks for all the comments! I figured you folks would say keep the BUD. I forgot to mention, the 7.5' perfect 10 got in a big fight with a hail storm, and got all dinged up. Dr. Gene Scott and some other feeds I found were still coming in loud and clear the other day though. A couple hours...

Hello, I'm new here, but not new to satellite. I have a 7.5' Perfect 10 C-band dish that I bought/installed when I was 14 years old back in '94. 4-5 years back the actuator died, I had 0 time on my hands, and I went to DirecTV. I recently had a friends father ask if I wanted his 12'...
