hello everyone. I used to be a member years ago but it has been a while so I am getting back into the satellite game. Currently running a 1.1 meter motorized dish with a geosatpro microhd which I love.
Looking to get me a BUD, I found one but have to find a way to get it here to my house and also find a good spot for it, trees, lol. I have my 1.1 meter on the side of my house about 5 feet outside my bedroom window! Yah!! But I dont think I have room there for a 8-12 foot Bud Plus my neighbors might not appreciate it, they live about 25 feet away! lol.
However in my back yard about 100 feet away I have a spot where it looks like I might have a line of sight. I am trying to figure out though the projectry because the trees are pretty high but maybe 80 feet away so I am thinking maybe a bud is better at pulling the signal in than a ku dish.
Anyhow I want to put it back there so it is out of sight, HOA, and so I can go out there and tinker with it without having nosy neighbors watching and wandering what the heck I am doing. lol.
Im thinking I can hook it up with sprinkler wire which I have heard of and am thinking of getting an old analog reciever to perhaps use to move the dish and change polarity and then run the Micro with it.
Overall I am thinking I can shoot for the stars, I would love a 12 footer, but I suppose an 8 footer could do alot good too.
Nice site guys.
