I respond the way I am addressed. Please don't threaten me, If you have a problem than address it off the forums. Fyi, Lawyers are very expensive.

Yeah, I will give SES a call and have them turn the power down so your reception will be perfect. Once they realize you are a SatelliteGuys member, they will be right on it!!!.

SES-3 is not "too hot" which is the dumbest thing I have ever read in the FTA forum. The satellite operator adjusts the power levels and keeps them in a level that is within their specs. You can't blame the satellite or the uplink facilities, it's obvious you have some equipment problems. Jeez...

Is this kind of like Voom from back in the day?. Sounds fishy, can't see it even getting off the ground.

Yeah it's certainly not like the old days, now those were fun!. C-band is still alive but as the technology changed so did the way to view it. Wish I had taken pictures of the old setups and equipment before I got rid of it. This was 25 years ago and now we are finding new ways to get c-band...

Can't wait to get the dish going!!. I will give a status report on the project..

Thank you Ice, I thought I was the only one having trouble reading and understanding that post.

Thanks for the info. Can't wait to get the dish and try it out. The only issue for me would be a LOS one due to the low look angle, but with the fall sun transients coming up I should be able to get confirmation of location. As for the post by richyrich, I am having a hard time understanding...

Anyone try a 1.2meter mini-bud for AMC-8 @ 139º c-band?. I am in the upper midwest and trying for the MPEG-2 DVB-S radio feeds. Kind of limited on the size of the dish and 1.2-1.8 meter maybe my only hope. I plan to put this dish on a motor for other birds but would like to see is there is...

Now that's a dish!. You must have hot signal levels with that one and it looks awesome. Any idea on how heavy that dish is?.

Wow, just two full time analogs left. I bet their days are numbered too.

Also, they maybe encrypting in the near future.

Just out of curiosity, any issues with the trees in the background?. The dish is a beautiful thing, nice work on the install.

Looks good!. Lucky you to have that great view of the arc and for the price it's a nice setup. I saw one of the mesh bulges but that seems like it can be repaired. Maybe try a line amp out of the LNB for the long coax run?. The whole setup looks cool and congrats on getting it up and running!.

Agree, it's stupid but since the cable industry is subsidizing it who knows. I do wonder if the sat companies contribute funds or they pay per sub like ESPN, Weather Ch, etc...
