1.2 Meter (44") Winegard Satellite Dish, LNB
1.2 Meter Dish, LNB (Made for DIRECTV signals) and 28"x48" plywood ground stand. Definitely picked up satellite 101 in my area. I'm located 8 miles
south of Santa Rosalia in San Lucas RV Park, #22 (white 5th wheel across street from La Bahia Restaurant). I received all channels EXCEPT FOR the
networks (NBE, ABC, CBS, FOX and PBS) and also got some free movie channels unsubscribed for. I DO NOT have a receiver for sale, you'll need your
own. Dish and LNB were $150 new. Am asking $1500 pesos or $120 dlls.
Email me at sfb.13@hotmail.com for more info or pics.

The antennas are measured left to right from center. 1.2 meter is a 48" dish, 44" is a 1.1. The antennas are longer top to bottom, however, that is
not the dimension used.

thank you for your totally unusable information on my dish i'm trying to sell. This is measuring from top to bottom, if you measured side-to-side
wouldn't quite make 36", however totally irrelevant to the sale at hand. it IS a 1.2 M. Dish on the nomenclature and paperwork, thank you for your
input seņor Bombero (it's really only spelled with one 'R' and i used to BE ONE) so post on, mi amigo. Regardless of your pickiness, the dish and LNB
are STILL FOR SALE. Que tenga buen dia.
b.b.

Is this a high definition dish. Does it receive signals from the 99 and 103 sats along with the 101?
Off grid, 12-190 watt evergreen solar panels on solar trackers, 2-3648 stacked Outback inverters, 610ah LiFePo4 48v battery bank, FM 60 and MX60
Outback charge controllers, X-240 Outback transformer for 240v from inverters, 6500 watt Kubota diesel generator.

Larry, it's not a high-def dish... just a generic Winegard 1.2 meter, not specifically set up for any high-def reception. The LNB is single-headed,
and manufactured for Directv. Each different LNB uses seprarate voltages for their own companies, i'm not an expert on that at all.... and with my
'satellite-finder' gizmo i found a lot of different satellites including 110 and 119. I DID try a year ago with the same type dish to get DishTV here
in the Sta. Rosalia area, no luck whatsoever. What else this will work on, quien sabes.

BajaBuddha, sorry to rain on your parade, you misspelled your name too! You have a one meter dish. They are not measured top to bottom. Side to side.
This dish is of no use to anyone in Baja Sur for Dish Network, too small. Its fine for way up North, for Directv and Dish. Your LNB sounds like one of
the very old single LNB's, its only good for one satellite. This LNB will work for both Dish and Directv for only one sat above Ensenada, or perhaps
a bit lower. You could be using one of the newer tripple antennas in the same area and get all of the channels and HD.
Sorry to a fellow firefighter, best to not call it a 1.2 meter dish, its a one meter dish. Lots of your amigos in Baja Sur use the 1.2 dishes and they
would be a bit dissappointed to find out that this simply is not. Hey, keep your axe sharp and don't walk on panelized roofs! You sound like a
truckie.

I have found trolls living on every other website i've ever visited, why not this one? I'd have a battle of the wits with you, bomberrro, but i
refuse to duel with an unarmed opponent. As far as misspelling my name, I researched my handle before i ever posted it, you apparently are just a
person who likes to stir muck until it smells to your liking. My ad is just that, and ad... if you don't like the contents, just DON'T BUY IT, but
it's better to keep your mouth shut and be thought of a fool as to open it and remove all doubt. By the way, however you measure it, a meter is
39.37" and 44" is 1.2 meters. It's a generic dish, worked fine for me in Baja Sur. WHAT'S YOUR POINT? Trying to save the world? Please move on to
other postings where you don't make such a fool of yourself.

Bajabuddah, or whatever. You are jumping to conclusions on Bomberro. Not only is he a retired fireman, he is one of the most knowledgeable and
helpful people in BCS for satellite tv issues. If you weren't so combative you might learn something.
