on european units make sure they are HD ATSC compatible, most countries outside the US are using other HD format standards. also RF outputs could be in PAL and or SECAM, etc. plus 50 hz, instead of 60.

I remember Molniya, I never tried getting that sat. there was another russian satellite also with another name, dont recall name ATM, what made the russian satellites weird was their figure 8 type orbit, the satellite would receive a few hours of programming and record it, then once it was way...

I have probably installed over 50 of them in the 90s, they had the best signal. even installed a few of their 12 footers even nicer. their only weakness is the part that attaches the dish to the polar mount, the metal there was thin and rusted very quick in florida humid salty conditions...

Something fishy about this, if they do not have a warrent and proof of identification i wouldnt let anyone snooping around my place, and I dont have anything to hide, its just my rights. as for C-band being illegal someday isnt very logical, first off, the gov. mostly uses higher frequencies...

you mean to tell me he isnt on westar 5 transponder 1 anymore? hehe

The design, uses the large ring as support structure and help keep curvature of mesh. mesh is preformed "stamped" these were very nice antennas. in them good ole days of the 80s when C-band ruled, there were all kinds of designs, some old actuator arms used relays etc. which were mounted in...

UHF DX mostly from meteors. and VHF DX on lower band during high sunspot activity. UHF DX will only bring in stations for a few minutes less than an hour, find yourself an old TV with the continuous UHF dial , attach an omni directional UHF antenna, and just scan up and down the dial. as...

I used to build parabolic antennas back in the day (early 80s) most factory built and home built had a F/D ratio of .32 - .36, for deep dishes, you could purchase a feed horn ring that slipped on the end. or just get a feed with adjustable scaller rings. Advantages of shallow are, that long...
