pics of the dish farm...post yours too :)

Here are my fta dishes and a parabolic grid needed to reach a distant (7 mile) Sprint tower for internet connection.

I have my old WildBlue dish converted and pointed at 125W works great.

I have my old WildBlue dish converted and pointed at 125W works great.

I was surprised how much signal that tiny dish pulled in, especially with that second reflector on it. It seems to focus the signal tighter this way as I tried setting it up by extending the distance to the lnb like a conventional offset dish. There was a major difference in the gain. I tried for 125W but trees got me.

 

[KE4EST]

Yeah I did the same thing. I tried extending the arms etc.....but ended up doing what you did, and yes much better gain.

Ted,

It's good to see the Prime star up and running again. Is that a Usals motor you put on it?

That is 'cuz I have a good LNB holder on it now. It is an SG9120B. Only moves from 87 to 101. Have others fixed on other Ku's. But works well.

Clearly not. It's satellite TV for monsters.

 

[Dishman Dan]

They probably watch "Leave it to Beaver" on the Dam channel!

Yep, looks great. I'd gladly join any HOA that requires such an installation.

Are those dishes mounted to the sea can?

 

[Magic Static]

Yep the Sea can is wired

Klickitat county, Washington! come on! Five fixed or two motorized, minimum. Sea Vans must be on a foundation and fastened down, however. Temporary placements are not allowed. (East of HWY 97)!

With all those dishes on top it is no longer a sea can but a NPGM

 

[rv1pop]

Around here, they are just prefabs! Just another home or mother-in-law apartment.

 

[Magic Static]

I hope neither one of my mothers-in-law get wind of that idea

Cool! Is your man cave in there too?

I wish I had one of those shipping containers. I could put soooooo much junk in there and get my house back, to use as a house...
