Hello,

Like most tech-heads I like to have a little dabble in different technologies at least once in my life... In this particular situation I've taken an interest to satellite dishes... Why? I'm not sure... But I watched some movie the other night and realise I hadn't.

What I'd like to know is...

...what fun is there to be had with a satellite dish?

..is there really and satellites up there worth listening in to?

...what kind of hardware would you recommend?? some old SatTV ones look cheap!!

..is anyone 'WarDriving' the skies and finding anything interesting? :-)

Answers/Information/Resources/Software/Links.. all much appreciated!!!

Cheers,
Geeek

Congratulations Tim, you're officially a jerk. It's quite obvious that GP didn't know that you can't just tap into any random satellite and play around. You however in your stunning genetic connection to people at lockheed martin (you appear to have absolutely no connection besides that) have thus proven that you think you are better than everyone else. Good job with the typos, and I do beleive that GP was trying to contact a random Satellite, not a Satellite dish... He is on Earth after all.

Maybe it is you who should think (not thing) before you type.
