Wow... that was something.

sharris (after one budlite) has a good point, in a lot of other forums newbies would simply get flamed instead of getting the help they need.
The great thing about this place is there are always people to help out and do so whether they've been doing it for decades or have only just started, anyone's free to offer their experience without fear of ridicule or attack.

I'm sure CharredPC will have a comment to add about this later.

Before the FTA section was started about a year ago, the people who had a FTA system had the General satellite section.

I had been a member of other boards and all they do is flame the newbies
"Did you read the rules?"
"Try a search for your answer"
and other things.

I don't like rules like that. I have no problem answering the same question 100 times. Also, since the original question was asked, things have changed that generate a new answer.

I want the newbies to stay here, and not get shooed away. Remember...we ALL were newbies at one time.

I think the job that Iceberg and all the mods do is incredible. And as someone who has been reading through many of the back postings here I can assure you they DO answer the same question over and over. Your indulgence is greatly appreciated!

I agree. I started back-reading the forum and I'm into about November '04 now.

I learned some cool things - like:

Iceberg must have a 'No Hack Talk!¡!¡!' generator. It's almost worthy of a 'best of'.

I learned that diplexers work just fine with FTA stuff (saved a question there!)

I also learned a cool trick for pointing the offset LNB: Make up and fine tune the satelite position via USALS vs pointing the dish with 1.2. This makes it easier to keep the sats in order as you hit 'em on the arc. The channel editing software will let you sort the chanels by satellite position (123w, 110w, etc).

It is an interesting read to 'back-read' the forum.

yeah! That's a very great forum! And I know a lot of forums across the world!

nah...copy paste works good

I don’t mind questions…but don’t let it be a hack one

We want this board to be unlike most others….FTA people talking about legal FTA channels.

But that's ok! In Germany you'll get 5 years in jail if you hack pay tv!
You can hit your wife or your child and you'll get a few years. But don't hack pay tv!!! That gives you a minimum of 5 years!!!

But soon it will end.........

I sometimes get the urge to use the nick "Nagra2" and run around those "uncool" forums, posting nothing but sinister laughter with my avatar being a ticking clock.....

I learned that I could get a cheap analog receiver, slave it to my MPEG2/DVB and pick up even more free stuff. I might even know where I can get one free. Now all I need to do is sell a bunch of stuff on Ebay (in order to fund this project) and assemble and install everything. I'll keep reading for awhile though. I am not a "handyman" type and I want to make sure I can handle it.
