LOL...:up
Just this past weekend I was mowing, got near my 10 footer, and hollered towards the house "W3 PLEASE!" and my wife moved the dish up to AMC3 so my head just clears it on my riding mower!
(It's W3 in the old Toshiba that moves it)i love movies with buds in them. today i watch Switching channels a 1988 movie staring burt reynolds. burt notice his tv monitor picture jumping around, he call out the window for the engineer to fix it so the enginner kick it nothing then he got on top of the dish jumping on it and burt say its good now.
boy was that funny.

What makes an FTA'er different than your average subscriber is when you see any dish, especially on businesses, you stop to look at it to see if you can figure out what satellite it’s pointed at and what kind of LNB is on the darn thing! Still guilty of that one! The wife hates when I do that!
Might not want to try that in Goldendale WA.. The high speed internet uses a 20" dish with a rectangular LNBF on it. The interface point is on top of the Grain Growers Silo.
So E* and D* may be pointed South but the internet dish may be any direction. The DirecTV installer working on the east side of town could not get any signal at an apartment complex. About 15 dishes pointing west! Another installer did not have so much problem the next day! He looked at my Glorystar dish install and set his and had his satellite in less than 2 minutes. We both had a laugh!

I go first:
You know there's a FTAer in your neighborhood when you see the Dish Network, Directv, and cable company trucks parked at your neighbors house watching a ballgame on a FTA system he owns!

When you have the only neighborhood house that has more dishes than the local cable company headend.
A slight variation ......

You know you're an FTAer when you're seriously considering setting up a dish aimed at a yet to be launched satellite (AMC-21).
