Satellites can be dangerous

lol @ dishman,

Ice is correct, my neighbors blankets are behind the dish, but it is indeed a defunct dish because I bought all her equipment like 10 years ago, only the dish and feedhorn is standing

I envy you, everytime we go visit the wifes family, in Morelia & Coalcoman,
in Mexico. I noticed all the Bud dishes on Roofs and Sky Mexico. For all
you people who do have Buds, more power to you.

Yeah BUDs were huuuuuge down here at the end of the 80s all throughout the 90s because cable arrived very very late to Mexico and there were no TV options other than 4 or 5 OTA channels (not to mention you were able to get most US channels you know how ). Once VCII Plus made it necessary to subscribe legally or else you would get no audio on the analog channels and once Cable and Direct TV expanded their coverage, BUDs just became part of the ugly landscape on roofs. I personally know NO ONE around my area that has a working BUD, heck I didnt even move my dish for close to 7 years until like 2 months ago when I got into FTA.
