Red face Bought new system

I just bought my first sat. system for KU. I'm getting the M-2 with an upgrade to 36" dish. Now having said that, I'm hoping you guy's will help me when I need it. I hope it goes well for me. I'm in Michigan and I have a brother in Florida, who has a 12' dish. Maybe I can get him to help too. Ha
Jim

Smile hello everyone

i thought i would jump in here to see whats going. i never chatted on here before. i just love this fta stuff. i guess all i can say is this is what i have for now is a neusat sp6000 which i didnt get here. igot it on another sight before my friend told that i shoild have went here first. its all good though im pretty happy with it but i did get the fortec 36 inch dish and the qph-031 lnb and i also got some connectors and sattelite meter to get everything done right. and i love it. i'm currently on the g10r. i'm wanting to expand to c-band dish later to see what is out there. ilove browsing this site to see what else i can get into.

Smile NEW to Satellite

Hello all, I am very new to everything 'satellite' but trying to learn alot BEFORE my first satellite purchase. I wanted to purchase a satellite system so I could save some $$$ from rising television cable costs and because my Thai girlfriend wants to watch some Thai television living here in the ol' USA. I live in Hampton, Virginia and am looking for a top tier motorized system. I kinda know what I want and will ask in another section of the forum. There looks to be some real knowledgeable people here and I hope to pick your brains


Best Regards,



Razorback2
