Central California
Hey all! I've been trolling around your website for some time now just trying to expand my knowledge. You all seem like a good bunch so I decided to register.

My name is Tony, and I reside in the great state of California. Central California to be exact. Im in my mid 20's and I've been into the hobbie for about 2 years now, but have just recently become more interested in expanding my channel lineup.

Anyways, heres a few pictures of my satellites. The only channels Ive managed to get were the ones on Galaxy 19 with the 90cm, and 4 KU channels from Galaxy 26, also with the GEOsat 90. 90cm and C-Band Conical Scalar dont work too well for C-Band, but still managed to get about 8 channels from Satmex 6. The prime focus dish is new to me, and I haven't had any luck with it, but that subjects for another thread. Enjoy.....:rolleyes:

:welcome to Satelliteguys!

Great looking farm and congrats on catching some C-Band with a 90cm! Did you observe if performance was increased or decreased with an adjustment or the removal of the scaler?
 
welcome :wave

I made your pics thumbnails since we still have a fair amount of folks here on dial up ;)
They can click on the pics and see the larger versions

Thank you all for the warm welcome! How can I post pictures as thumbnails?

Yes, I tried removing the scalar and the quality went right down to zero without it. The position you see in the picture gave me the best signal. It was a very touchy adjustment.

Does SatAV still sell prime focus dishes? I just love the color and quality of your stuff! Nothing else out there like it, as far as the 90cm goes! If you guys made a 5 footer, or even 6 foot prime focus panel dish, Id buy one for myself and all my family members!
