Well I just ordered the 2 90cm dishes & LNB's from Sadoun and got my 5% discount for being a satelliteguy

Now is it next weekend yet? I want to get them so I can put them up.....

Pete, I might need your help buddy (and your meter)

 

[PSB]

Just let me know when you want me there! Will cost you a "Mountain Dew"!

 

[Todd Wiedemann]

I wish you guys were closer ... I need to re-aim.

I get nothing west of 97. East of there pegs the meter.

interesting....I thought mine was goofed for the same reason. My pole was off a little...you could try that

Otherwise, Minneapolis to Milwaukee is only a 5-6 hour drive

Thanks Ice. The ERROR MESSAGE said that I needed five (5) post before allowing links.

Hope the Fortecs work well for you. I had read good and bad things about them (Fortec) and decided to stay with Winegard. The polar mount and backup is made from .115 in. metal. The dish is .060 in. metal. It would be interesting to know the gauge the Fortec is made from.

 

[Mr Tony]

Well, we'll see how they work out.

More incentive to catch a Twins/Brewers game at Miller Park.

 

[Mr Tony]

this weekend is the Brewers & Twins at the big inflatable toilet (Metrodome)

Hey Iceberg, you're going to have to do a review / write up of the Fortec 90cm for us now . If you can side by side compare signal with the Winegard / Hotdish / or even the StarChoice dish that'd be really cool.

I'm tempted to order exactly what you did. I have absolutely no need for two dishes right now but I'm sure I'll find a use for it .

yep...will be doing a review

The SC is exempt since I go the best signals on SC now

I'll do the comparison between the 30 & the 36 (with both the existing LNB and the new one)

I'll check it against the DirecPC too

Very nice!

Fortec

My fortec dish came in a cardboard box, no "packing" whatsoever. Arrived with dents and paint chipped off, of course.

HACK TALK!

 

[CharredPC]

That sounds suspiciously like hack-talk to me...

 

[PSB]

Same here : )

You are in the wrong place if you think you will get any hack info here, all you will get here is you name address/e-mail/ and I.P. sent to Dishnetwork!
