I had the pleasure of decommissioning an ancient BSB SMATV system today after the block had a shiney brand new IRS system.
The whole system was still live with all the lights on that should have been and the Terrestrial side worked fine as did the 19.2e feed from the second dish.
The old Channel master 60cm dish is going to get a second lease of life on the side of my house after i've reconditioned it, powder coated all the metal parts and repainted the dish face. I also need to fit replacement lnb and possibly the feed horn too as the old ones were for circular polarisation. Not sure if the feed horn will be any good for H/V polarisation though !
I'm not 100% sure how it worked as it was before my time, I'm sure some of the older more experienced members can let us know how it worked
