Dude the story is great.

That Egg kicks ass!

Are you out of CA?
Cheapest way of shipping my be by fastenal

No I live in Southbury CT my old business name was Diamond Satellite Systems my name is Gary Diamond
I see you have a dish farm LOL here's old pic of my 12 footer as you can see i took it down last May it was on a 4 inch pole, and with two 6 inch ones on either side, and a roof support, I put the sucker up there, even have video tape of doing it, I think 1983-84 it went where it was last, pulled the pin and let it drop on a lot of wood so it would break, and not break the sidewalk that went in, as you can see the grapes were growing on it, I was using dish by the time i shot this pic yes it was sad, but i needed a new roof, and i took it down

Hey Gary can you find out how much for shipping for that dish? Plus what size of pole does that dish take?

Hey Gary can you find out how much for shipping for that dish? Plus what size of pole does that dish take?

the pole size for the only mount i have is the most common size for C-band 8-10 foot dishes but the shipping would be a huge issue i will try to talk to two big ebayers here and one UPS store i know in my town it has some hair line cracks, which know will not effect it and a few 1/4 inch holes that are in it maybe today when i get back from surgeon i can scan more info

Stem cell treatment?

 

[hank123]

Ya dude taking your own stem cells and putting them back into your body to rebuild it.

Stem cells are blank cells that can become any cell in your body. For some people it works well

Stem cell treatment?

yes my muscles in my shoulder and arm are a mess thanks to the dam doctor, they remove fat cells from my body and process them and inject them were they see the issues it has a 77% chance of working, i have to do PT with it too, which maybe just home crap i try to keep fit, but i also have 5 pinched nerves in my neck 3 are from bone satellite work beats your body up if you have bad genes, to late now, had one hip done need the other one shoulder no way now would i do the other then i would have no way to even wipe my butt
if i smoked or drank I would be long gone kid 75 now

IT HAS TO BOXED UP i'm a one arm cripple honest the %$$#$@ surgeon messed me up good i'm going to take the print for it which is to big to fit in my scanner and see if i can get a bigger scanner to scan it it explains how it works by the inventor sh*t he maybe even dead by now and i must take more pics of the parts if you see this print i think you will really want it, for sure you will have a one of a kind, and IT'S FREE I think i paid like $600-$800 to box and ship it to me the prints are hand written you will love them i want to create a 3 meg file you can down load so you can print it out here a peek but i can't fit it on my scanner

 

[danristheman]

Ok I understand Gary I was just looking into the price of shipping for you. That is a neat diagram you have there.

Wait until you see the whole think, very cool the guy was trying to invent a mini bud he may have, i saw a working one on G1 the 10 foot dish next to it was doing about the same in signal, hell we only had 120 degree LNBAS WITH HIGH LOSS FROM THE rg 213 CABLE AND CONVERTER but then primestar came, next was DTV i was doing 6 foot fixed buds for the Portuguese ch here, we have a very large population of them i know now about 500 words but speaking is hard wish i took Spanish in school English was not my first language, but it's not any good for making money off with around here, i hope you can make it work, crap i hope you can even make money off of it, somehow, life is to short to be a mean person, I also gave Scott who lives near me about a 100 pounds of old C-band magazines, you guys might be able to get him to post some cool stuff there, i even gave Bob Cooper his missing digest magazine keeping the stuff is messy and i want to clean up before i die, plus i would rather what to see it go to a good home then never know what happened i will be paying a Spanish guy to repair my deck its a large deck 24 x 14 DECK he may be willing to box it up for money, he looked eager for work the hardest part is finding the hot spot where the feed collector goes since plastic lets the signal through it maybe possible to make a slider to find the hot spot, and where you get the best second beam SIDE LOBE REDUCTION from the 2 degree spacing I lost interest as a hobby, but in the 80s i was eager to work 20 hours a day to pay my bills freeze my butt off too i just don't want to take it to the dump, way to sad, my pacemaker would have A hard job keeping me alive and i'm trying to reduce my stress, not increase it i also have a large CB radio repair shop i put away it saved my butt before satellite came along, i want to sell that, got bills to pay, was hoping if I got my shoulder fixed i could do TV repair work, but now its the lifting i also was going to work for free at first just to learn the latest new stuff, again another dream lost i have the 12-14 Ku brand new dishes here too

well at first we used lnbs which went into a converter then into the receiver the noise temp of the LNB is the same as the lnbf but less parts so the overall noise is much less then they got better until now there very low 15 degrees very stable from 10 pounds in 1980 160 noise at $1,000 bucks to I/2 a pound $20 bucks 15 degrees noise very light and small i have a huge c-band feed here with Ku to give away hanging up must be 20 pounds one lnbf would do it, will take a pic and post it spread the word free just pay for shipping and handling most is very good material and new i'm not new here, just mostly in the pit breaking it off

 

[danristheman]

LNBF's have come a long way from the 80's. I think Hank123 might be interested in that lnbf. I have been only in the FTA hobby for a few years but I have learned a lot from others on here.

I found they don't work well on 10-12 foot dishes but smaller ones are great
