My Dish Farm
I started with c band setup back about 15years ago I bought used from a neighbor for 60 bucks. After that I had at least 4 c band setups working as I would get a new dish. Only 2 on poles at a time and one true focus stationary on a ring. Then I moved about 85 miles south to a rented house. I put up my c band on the ring for a talk radio station I liked. I went off the air on c band and went to ku so my smaller dish interest began. My first ku was a 30" with a pansat 900 motor. I moved again to my current house. In my work I had access to used ku dishes from commercial buildings that were coming down. So I started getting ku dishes. I had one setup by my house then another and it got to crowded so I picked a spot to start a farm a bit away from the house.
At present I have 6 dishes up. I have 2 1.2m muzak up one for 83w RTV, one for 97w and 101w, I have a true focus 1.0m ku up one for 129w and a 1.0m channel master I mounted on a dg380 motor for the rest of ku. On the c band side I have a 7.5' mesh with a dual c band feedhorn and my old 6' stationary true focus solid dish for 95w. I have coolsat receivers set up in my office, bedroom and living room and ready to setup a tv in the basement soon. I hope to be able to move the motorized ku and the c band from one receiver and hook all receivers up to them also for viewing. Here are a few pictures.

Cruzin's farm.
Nice.
Maybe you need some cows to make it more picturesque. I'm thinking of Norman Rockwell for the last picture.
