tommie gorman Posted February 2, 2007 CID Share Posted February 2, 2007 still not too bad..moderate snow coming down..SE TN.. Just did this test and a airplane flew through my signal path and all light s stopped for a few seconds. Well a UFO got in my way... I went out to chase him off, well he just laughed at me. So I goes in the house and gets my all fired secret weapon. Out comes the wife screaming and hollering... they was gone in a new york second. So I think they messed me up a minute or 2 also. I hope they do not bring back reinforcements. :::..

My grandson and I watched many transports last summer. I was just wondering, tommie, how far do you live from that UFO Base? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fikester Posted February 2, 2007 CID Share Posted February 2, 2007 How good is the signal on a clear front ? Mine has to be caked with heavy wet snow to knock it out...cant complain as the cable here is compared to rabbit ears?...and trust me the channels the rabbit ears picks up has the best picture quality! So if it requires a sweeping its not a big deal to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the military about 10 nano miles. Yeah, 1/2" of snow on the dish is not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
