I recommend this as a replacement reed switch: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/59025-040/59025-040-ND/151999 I had to replace the reed switch in my AJAK H180 when it failed and this one works great for me.

Sure I would have. It's only $1,000. That's not much. The FCC are the ones who are stealing away this spectrum from us so that they and the cell phone monopolies can profit. We should be properly compensated for this theft of spectrum. A program that costs $500 a dish and was cut off 3 years ago...

How do you register for this? Should be lawsuit worthy for those who missed out. A 2018 registration deadline is completely unacceptable when they haven't even taken away the spectrum yet. The FCC's f**kery with C-band is affecting plenty of post-2018 C-band users. Should be able to register...

What are you charging for it and how much is the cost to freight ship it to Chicago? Those things weigh a ton.

They do help but in very heavy rain even an 8 ft+ solid dish can be affected by rain fade.

The latest smartphones are downgrades in a lot of ways. I'm keeping my LG V20 until it breaks. The newer models no longer have a replaceable battery or a second screen. They're getting rid of headphone jacks and buttons on newer phones, making them less functional just so they can be even...

40% of it is still being left for satellite usage. They weren't using the full C-band anyway. There's been lots of empty orbital locations and transponder frequencies in the C-band for years. Taking away a full 60% of it is concerning though. There wasn't *THAT* much unused capacity amongst all...

Not even C-band could get me to move to Alaska :biggrin Buying a property, installing satellite dishes on it, and then controlling them remotely from my house while I live in a better part of the U.S. on the other hand...

This wouldn't even be necessary if they had just let T-Mobile/Sprint merge without conditions. That stupid Dish Network wireless provider is completely unnecessary and when you have four different companies fighting each other for wireless spectrum it results in tons of wasted spectrum. We...

Wow Magic it's like you've got a warehouse of dishes. Do you have any solid C band dishes you would be interested in parting with? :) I've been interested in procuring a second commercial dish but I've been having a hard time finding anything but meshes. Winter's comin' and I'm running out of...

5G should be useful for stationary uses just like our dishes. You install an antenna for reception at the receive site and then run it to a wireless router to provide Wi-Fi coverage for the premises. It should be a solid substitute for those who can't get FTTP. Where its performance will be...

That is where they backhaul the international feed of RAW/Smackdown on Mondays & Tuesdays The quality is poor compared to their domestic backhaul on 87W/95W/99W (it varies which sat they use each week but they usually use 95W) but I'm sure the quality is acceptable to most since it's ITC I'll...

What are you trying to receive on 55W? Some tps are stronger than others CGTN mux might be receivable on a 6 footer, it's pretty strong I'd advise at least 8 feet if you want all transponders on the sat

Is that a DH Satellite dish I spy in the background? What size is that bad boy? I think I see a seam in the middle. Is this one designed to separate into halves? I will actually pay you money if you let me have that one. I've been in the market for another commercial dish. ;)

Well I mean tonight I'll be watching the 2019 MLS All-Star Game in 4K HDR HEVC @ 65 Mbps and then a Tenacious D concert in 4K 3D 4:2:2 10 bit @ 55 Mbps after having watched some nice documentaries about Japan on NHK World HD @ 58W and a documentary about female wrestlers in Senegal on CGTN...

...Yeaaah. That's gonna be a no from me, dawg. Hope you're part of the 1% because otherwise you're gonna go broke. Everything will be 10x more expensive if it's not built by exploiting third world slave labor. That's the fun little fact of your western lifestyle. It requires exploiting people...

Go drive around rural areas around Denver and hope for the best.

Wow. Thanks a lot, Donald. I certainly nope no one in this hobby was dumb enough to vote for that guy because now you're reaping what you sowed. Elections have consequences. Guess now's the time to stock up because I don't see a replacement for the ASC1 happening that is as good quality.

You still need a C-band sized dish for Ku if you want to be able to get everything though. I've run across a fair number of Ku feeds that couldn't be picked up on anything smaller than a 6 footer. Also, the larger the Ku dish that you have, the better it will hold up against rain. I hear mesh...

Keep a mind if you wanna watch the Good Morning America anchors goofing around and getting their makeup done you're gonna need a C-band dish ;)

A true trekkie wouldn't be worried about TV channels airing re-runs as they would own the TOS complete series Blu-ray box set which is available dirt cheap these days ;)

I have to say I really enjoy that Rainier site though. The design out of the 90's is fascinating. The weird marketing buzz words Glen uses, the strange capitalization. The endless blog posts about how "Were" (Glen doesn't know what apostrophes are apparently) the future of C-Band. His little...

Is there a reason why he only resells PowerVu channels?? Does he actually have legit contracts with these networks? I find it strange that he isn't reselling any channels that are using encryption methods which aren't compromised.

I know this is America and all and it's a country that has a reputation for being litigious, but you are not even remotely legally responsible for an idiot trespassing on your property and getting themselves hurt. If said idiot filed a lawsuit then they would be laughed out of court and the...

That was a really cool satellite dish. I don't see the purpose of destroying it. They should have left it up there, as a landmark. It's not like Alaska is desperate for space. Just look at where it was; in the middle of nowhere. "Pave the way for a new generation of communications in Alaska"...
