Welcome...
Hi guys! I've been a member for a bit - but only one post - but as of last saturday my FTA rig is operational.
I have a winegards 76cm dish, motor, and a traxis FTA receiver that I'm looking to upgrade soon to start chasing feeds, especially HD. I live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Hello. I am brand new to the site, and am hoping to get some tips about putting up a satellite dish on an apartment balcony. The complex won't let me attach it directly to the balcony, so I've had it in a bucket with cement --- which is totally falling apart!
Any suggestions?
Any suggestions?
Welcome behnanch.... Is it the bucket that is falling apart? If so, what is the bucket made out of...

This is my first post. Just a quick one.
My Dear Wife & I are full time RVers. Have moved around the country in a 5th-wheel for the past 10 years. Therefore, our concerns center around technology that can be used while mobile - often in remote locations. We use Dish TV (just went to 722k receiver) and available unsecured wi-fi as we travel.
Thanks for all we have learned from reading the forums for many years.

Hi All:
Name's "satpete" from Ontario, Canada. I just setup an old 30" StarChoice round dish with the single LNB aimed at Galaxy 19 (97 W). I hooked it to a $10.00 yardsale QSat 2500 Plus receiver and I'm getting 155 channels, which I have edited to 53 English channels. Only "problem" is that my best signal is 56%. I think because I really need a 36"+ size for my location: 44.7500 N, 79.2560 W. Anyway, even at lowest ss of 30%, I can still get an acceptable picture.
Question: The QSat 2500 Plus acts like a Pansat 2500A. Says made in China, so probably is, eh? I just had to get that Canadian "eh?" worked into this someplace. (LOL)
Also, Iceberg is one of the most knowledgeable people I have seen. What a great guy!
'Bye for now.

Welcome Delbert! Hang around, read a little, ask questions about what you don't understand and you'll be up to speed in no time.
