Could Channel 1 be a new source?

Basically it's a psuedo news channel that's across middle schools in the USA...due to it being free they get ads and free equipment (the news has commericals) anyway I think the satellites are cbands that might be fixed unto the satellite (I think it's Primedia that owns them) might be interesting to see if school systems are getting rid of it.

It's been said that it's fixed to only receive that channel but then again look what they've done with primestar dishes, voom hd receivers etc.

The dishes are fiberglass KU band, there really isn't a mount on the back of those things. I guess you could drill through one though!

The receiver is a huge metal box with a VCR inside of it.

The metal "exoskeleton" frame is held down with cinder blocks. A welder could have fun with the frame, maybe you could "stack" a small pizza dish mount on it?

Personally, I'd just put it on G10R, and have a blast watching RTN.
