    Used Lnb

    I cancelled my E* service and I returned my receivers and lnb. My question is why do they want a used lnb? Do they recycle those and put them back in the field for the installer to reuse? Or is it just a bothersome step they put you through for leaving them.

    Superdish material

    My father and I just got E*and we both have Superdishes. I went to check out his install and the first thing I saw was that his dish was metal. My dish is plastic. I am assuming that the plastic dish was made to decrease the weight. I was wondering if the metal dish would provide superior...
