    PS3 sales down in second week

    I agree, I would love to have one too, but not at that price!!! They would sell much more units if the prices were lower, unfortunately we live in a greedy world...

    for big dishs experts(460cm):need advice and some answers

    if those dishes next to it are 1,60 then clearly the dish has less than 3,20m as it's less than double the size of those other dishes... I'd say perhaps between 2,50 and 3m.

    My New dish

    lol, that would be nice. I just asked because I believe that that every satellite has coverage on the whole hemesphere but out of the footprint the signal will fade away the further it gets, I guess a dish that size would pick up enough "faint signals" do focus on its focal point to get a...

    Papas' got a brand new...dish

    Oh lucky for you :D Too bad we don't have much choice of american and candian FTA channels over here, that would be very cool. nbc's feed on 12.5W gets kind of boring after a while...

    Papas' got a brand new...dish

    Well done rato! :D I'm happy you are finally able to receive the north beam, I guess last weekend's heavy winds messed up my dish because now I can't receive NB from astra :P I was going to align the dish properly today, but unfortunately seems like the bad weather always waits for the weekend...

    it's a stab hh100 clone pictures are here: http://www.satellites.co.uk/php-bin/forum/showthread.php?t=55652 dish is nice and firm on the motor's pole the dish and motor appears to be nicely square. It would be easier if the dish had the angles scaled, but it doesn't have any reference to what...

    well, I tried today at lunch time but no luck, It seems I just can't have panamsat and astra 2 at he same time, I can either have one or the other... well I rather have astra 2 obviously, my goal was to try to track the arc nice and perfect but something may be wrong, I have to confirm if the...

    Geostationary Arc

    Hi I believe that this is what my dish's arc is doing, (see image please), is there any way to align it on the sides? I've been fiddling around with it but now the most eastern satellite I can recive is Hellas 39ºE and the most western is hispasat 30ºW. My goal is to be able to acheive at least...

    My New dish

    Just out of curiosity, if it were possible do apply a "domestic" LNB on it's focal point, would it be possible to receive every single satellite (avobe horizon) even if the footprint was very far away? I mean a dish that big must pick up enough signal on those very distant footprints right?
