@breakage Were the dishes the actual dishes or was it the arm/LNB*?

Never take the arms/LNB to the yard. Pop them suckers open an pull out your boards..you'll thank me later. For those who not know what I speak of...I'm sure a forum search for LNB/DISH/Directv. I know I posted plenty on them when I first started getting them.

I never found dishes tho to be worth the effort of taking in. The steel attached to them..sure, but the actual dish, the ones I've dealt with weren't even metal. I think the ones I've had, have all been fiberglass. Only metal was the arm they were attached to for me, of course YMMV.

But yea..those LNB boards...lovely things. Bad thing - Their very light. Good thing - All the ones I've pulled with the exception of 2, have been plated. Search the forum for pics. An the two that weren't platted...were like some weird plastic/cloth hybrid. lol. Very hard to describe. I think I still have them somewhere, as a memento.

Love me some LNBs!
