Replacement dish...WOW

[techno935]

Put up the replacement dish tonight. Turned out to be a 31" as opposed to 33" I had. Couldn't tell the difference til I compared em. The 31" is like that of a circle, the 33" is shaped like an egg. Anyways...the good news.

I peaked at 82 for quality on my true south sat AMC-5 (79 West). Very happy now. Although I am a little irritated with that mango tree. I'm back up on the push-up pole now...that thing I know is plumb.

Now, anything past 107.3 West I can't get cause of the tree until I hit 121 West (Echostar 9) and the rest is good west of that including 127 IA-7.

I'll report more as I scan back east to be sure SBS6 is in good shape. Talk in a bit. Also, AMC-2 is showing dead....maybe I'll have to input a live transponder.

What is a push up pole..

It's like a cross between a dirty sanchez and a rusty trombone.

Push up pole is slang for an antenna mast! Damn, I thought my mind was in the gutter!! LOL

Yes, I'm open to volunteers with chainsaws. Chomp them hunks of wood outta the way.

Gary,

Of course, neither of these items should be confused with the "Cleveland Steamer"

Ok, this thread was asking to be hi-jacked. Good thing I wasn't eating when I saw the "steamer" comment.
