Does anyone know how often or even if the dishpointer satellite images are updated? The trees in the picture look bare. They have had leaves for several weeks now. "John"
they're using satellite photos which may only get updated every couple of years. Trees are trees... if they've grown, set the height over obstacle accordingly and you'll be fine.
Hey! We have hills in Iowa! Mountains no, but much of the state is rolling.
Could be a tree issue. Some of them get pretty tall here, too!
A friend of mine just moved back from Des Moines. It wasn't so much the featureless landscape but the thunderstorms that ate him up.Hey! We have hills in Iowa! Mountains no, but much of the state is rolling.
Maximum elevation in Iowa: 1640'
Minimum elevation in Iowa: 480'
Nearly 2/3rds of the state is between 800 and 1400'
In contrast, Oregon's elevation ranges from 11,239' to Sea Level.
I experience a 462' drop in elevation in just three miles on my way to work.
Never mind. I no longer need line of sight for 61.5. According to Blue Sky Satellite all of the HD locals for Des Moines will be available off of 129 starting tomorrow. They were scheduled to install a wing dish today but said that would no longer be necessary. "John"
