    Default VAST at Last (For ME!!)

    Today at 4.30pm I officialy joined the swelling ranks of VAST viewers and wont have to rely on information from my 14 Times removed Cousin on matters concerning the VAST system.

    It only took 3 cancellations but now its a DONE DEAL.
    I knew this had been mentioned and I had seen an installation done localy just last week but I was surprised at the dish size, Dual LNB and Siamese cable, whoever thought the 'Powers to Be' would try to 'Future Proof' the system almost at the beginning.

    Now I have to go and resort the mess behind the TV, them cables have self multiplied, I swear they have.

    I had to read it twice as I thought you said I 'Officialy HAD it' hahahaha

    I had to laugh when filling in the paper work the installer said 'You dont have Digital Terrestial do you' I said, 'Not according to Myswitch' he then continued 'If you did I wouldnt be here would I'?
    Who am I to contradict such pearls of wisdom ???

    So while I was putting your dish up I noticed aerial-like lightning rod on your roof... very interesting design.
