Hello
As an expatriot from the BUD community back in the early eighty's, I haven't seen this much enthusiasim in quite some time. They say there's no fool like an old fool. In that light, after reading a bit here, Iv'e made the plunge. Purchase a Pansat 6000hxc, Invacom QPH31, and an 85cm dish with enough RG6 to rewire the house from a reputable national dealer. Probably paid a premium. Doesn't matter. I haven't been this excited in quite some time. Besides, the wife must have a months supply of Iams Hairball care in the pantry. She makes a cassarole with penne that's out of this world. Enough till the next check at least. Everything should arrive next week and Iv'e been making a list of the items I need to carry up on the roof. It's been raining as of late so I've dug out my old boat shoes in case the roof tiles are a bit slippery. Got the small pill box of nitrostat tablets and the portable oxygen. Figure I'll need a power cord and manifold. I'll make sure their plugged in before I bring them up. I'll slide the dish, lnb, and receiver on the eves first thing. Probably should put the tv up there also (27", Ill get the wife to help). I know in a hello post you are not supposed to ask questions. However, I know you shouldn't do this in a hard rain, but what if it is just a little misty? I'm so excited. I can hardly wait till it gets here.

p.s. All kidding aside. And I think, thanks to Iceberg, the best 6000hxc support forum.
