SlimLine AU9 Dish Cover

[Bosco10021]

Has anyone been able to find a dish cover (weather cover) for the new Slim Line AU9 ?

I had on for my 3 LNB and it really helped with snow build up on the dish.

Now that I am in the process of installing the new Slim Line dish I would like to find one for it.

I have looked but no luck yet.

Maybe the source for your phase III dish cover has them for the Slimline.

Anyone else have experience with these covers? Are they really beneficial? TIA

My experience is purely physical--they are GAWDAWFULUGLY. The picture on the vendor's website is NOT a slimline dish. The slimline is huge--much bigger than the one shown--and that silver gunnysack over it isn't going to make it look any smaller.

Why is it that snow can accumulate on a nearly vertical smooth surface, but it won't accumulate on a rough, irregular horizontal surface? I fail to see what benefit it offers. Logic says it will make matters worse, not better.

I located my dish outside of a closet window overlooking my garage roof. Maybe two or three times in a winter I have had to remove snow from it. Open window, spray with windshield deicer and the ice melts and falls off it.

I realize this solution isn't available to most, but I'm sorry, a dish is ugly enough without putting a bag over it.

I agree,
I use a broom, when nessasary.
