    found a potential BUD

    Hard to say without seeing it. Last one I just threw the big toolbox into the back of the truck so I had all my tools. Wrenches, hammer, pliers, cutters, vice grips, anything you think you need you should take. Anything you think its a million in one chance you need it, better bring it also. A...

    Free Map Master

    You mean you can hook the DVB-s2 receiver into the 4DTV receiver? If that is possible, that may give my 905 a new purpose instead of keeping it plugged in so the battery doesnt die

    Adventures In Dish Hunting 2012

    An offense like that they should be tied to a tree with the ribbon cable for such a terrible crime. On the other hand, are there any paraclipse dishes smaller then 12ft? I might of scoped one out the other day

    12ft Paraclipse

    I know of one that might be available for the taking. I dont have anything available to get it, its at an old motel in Salem, IL. The motel has been closed for years and the dish looks in very good shape, no damage seen to it whatsoever. If anyone is interested, send me a PM and I can give you...

    Added another BUD

    A few days ago I successfully added another Winegard 7.5ft dish to the setup. Put an ad in on the local radio station classifides and about a week later got an email saying I can have it. Went to his house early sunday morning and took it down all by myself. Wasnt hard at all. Took off the...

    Arc travel with Von Weise 24" actuator

    This one is a Von Weise V76-5 but the smaller telescoping section that has the threaded eye bolt where the dish connects is from a V24-LC. The original from the 76 is damage and needs major work done to it plus a nut for it.

    Arc travel with Von Weise 24" actuator

    Another update: Using the old nut that was a different style and some "home brew engineering", its back together and moving. The Ku side I do not have a signal on as is but I believe I need to raise the elevation.

    Arc travel with Von Weise 24" actuator

    Thats what happened. Looked at it this morning and the nylon acme nut is stripped clean. I know that it had seized up on the way back as according to who I got it from the dish sat still for 10+ years. The rubber boot that goes over both telescoping sections was in the wrong spot and the sliding...

    Arc travel with Von Weise 24" actuator

    UPDATE - On the way back west about 87 degrees the actuator lost grip internally somewhere on the arm and now the dish can be moved by hand. Ran the motor east then west a ways to hope it would recatch but no luck. Have to wait till day to see what happened but im guessing it finally shot craps...

    Arc travel with Von Weise 24" actuator

    I have stopped at either 89 or 79, havent tried further east yet. Since the remote is UHF I could run a piece of coax out and stand there at the dish with the remote to make sure everything clears. Need to wait for the weather to break first
