This past Sunday stopped by a local house that had an Eastern Arc Dish but missing the LNB and the guy gave me the dish - - said he had just switched to Comcast.
I already had an Eastern Arc Dish but the dish itself was warped. Thus I took the two and put one good one together.
I setup the dish both Sunday and today with a bit of trouble (but not too bad).
According to my zipcode (226xx) the skew should be set to 83 - - - but I found to get the best signal for 61.5, 72.7 and 77 that I needed a skew of 80. I peaked the dish on 72.7 TP 21 with a strength of 64, but the 61.5 strength was low - - - thus I kept playing with the skew until both 61.5 and 77 where as high as I could make them.
61.5 TP 29 strength 69
72.7 TP 21 strength 64
77 TP 21 strength 61
Since 72.7 and 77 are fairly close to the centerline of the dish and 61.5 is furthest from the centerline skew affected 61.5 more than the other 2. I assume others have had to adjust skew to get the best signal on Eastern Arc but since 77 will be going away I wanted my strongest numbers to be 61.5 and 72.7.
I also physically moved the location of my wing dish to 110 since my wing dish had been on 61.5.

Cutting Edge
Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

It is really really simple install (no special tools or instruments required and they guide you through using their starlink app and a simple set of instructions.Hello there

You can order direct from starlink online or from an authorized retailer.
Not at all like the special equipment needed for a satellite install.
Thank you Nelson,
Yes, I fully agree. I can install it with my teeth, and both hands tied behind my back...but this installation is for a commercial user that will not do it themselves, and myself, Im overseas...
But it looks like that we managed to find someone who can drive there for the work.
Thank you

It states the average amount they are under water is OVER $7,000. 
Personally, I tend to be the type that drives a vehicle for a lot of years....do my own oil changes and other fluid changes. Just replaced the spark plugs and a couple coils. Youtube is great for things like this.

This should hit a lot of folks with a dose of reality. I can only imagine how much more common this will get as AI progresses.
I read several stories on this and most are clear as mud. They say a lot of the stolen bitcoin has been "locked out" and that everyone will be made financially whole. I guess time will tell if either of these statements are actually true.

Anyone else watch this show? Any guesses as to what was in the box Gibbs gave to Abby that was on her desk? It look liked it was glowing.
I also heard that someone was leaving the show at the end of this season. Any guesses as to who thats going to be?

Tony as the director.
Would you rather have LaRoche ???Tony as the director.
No. Bring in someone new.
Tony is not serious enough for me. Parker is too close to the team and Tim is too young to take over IMO.
I don't think Tim and Tony are that far apart in Age ...No. Bring in someone new.
Remember what Tony said to Tim when they first got back together ...
Tony said: I am the New Tony, Tim .... (something to that effect)
Tony has changed, he's been running his Security Business ... I'm sure he has grown up.
Give it time ... your judging the New Tony from the old Tony.
It sounds like Tim won't be around the Team much longer either.
