and its so easy once ya get the hang of it anyone can do it. the longer your in the hobby, you will gain experience to become proficient in it too.

if you already have a dishnet 500 or Bell thats half the battle for initial start up .
all you need is to choose a receiver then.
later you can experiment moving to different sats as you get comfortable along the way.
the possibilities are endless.
