Where there is a will.....
Directv at the Lake
The lady of the house asked why I did not set up Directv at the lake. Well I said that there are just to many trees. She said, well I know you can do it. :sure:
I took an old Phase II dish that I had upgraded to a Phase III with the center 110 LNB. I removed the LNBs and put the 101 in the center position. Mounted the arm on a 1"x12"x4', got some coax at the electrical supply store, packed the compression connectors and tools and was off to the lake with an H20 and D11. I got a small compass and worked for about 20 minutes trying to find a spot to set the dish. I finally found a possible site. Hooked it up to the H20 and small 14 inch LCD tv and started to see what I could get. Lo and behold the TV gave out a loud signal. The two concrete blocks hold it very firmly.
And she said "I knew you could do it"

Let this serve as a tribute to those of us who search for a new residence with a compass in our hand!
My real estate agent thought I was a lunatic, turning down properties before I even went inside based on a compass reading.
Just goes to show how little people understand about proper priorities!
