I had a visitor last Saturday, Channel Hopper came with a car load of satellite goodies, even had a 1.8 Precision dish strapped to the roof. After a couple of days rest whereby my brain is able to work well enough to allow me to think whats next and I am able to walk in a reasonably straight line, after doing 10 miles up and down the lawn, plus information overload I am eager to get started. I have a a nice 1.8 Precision dish, a few holes and maybe needs a paint but it is a solid dish with a rolled edge and appears flat but will run a string test later. I also acquired a stand which I can just about lift, lnb, feedhorn etc etc. Now Channel Hopper obviously knows more about satellite systems than I would be able to comprehend over a life time of study but with the numbers and drawings he gave me I am grasping the setup. Having seen the pics before hand it was difficult to grasp what went where and it all looks 200% better than the photos that were sent. I will take some photos in the sunshine tomorrow to post on here in a separate thread and more as I progress with it all. The girls here, I say girls but they are almost as old as me but it keeps them sweet, so much so they will buy anything I need for the setup as my birthday present next month. Last but not in any way least my sincere thanks to Channel Hopper for traveling here to me with a car load of goodies to keep me happy for ages.

Congratulations, that's a might fine dish you have there in the Precision 1.8m. I am sure you will get many hours of enjoyment from both setting it up and observing what signals it can capture.
