sounds quite a big dish , did it have many channels : )
Hundreds. You see those dishes had a moter and it had to find the satellites in the sky to intercept the tv station signals. We had to punch in cordnance codes for each band of channels. Sometimes I would pick up a band all the way from Japan and watched the Japanese channel. I picked up a few Mexican channels too.
The odd thing was there was a rare planetary alignment that knocked the signals out for a while.
Back in those days everyone in my family had a decent job when the coal mines where open and that dish was about 4,000 US dollars.

At the time people back there had some money to spend because they all had full time jobs and owned the property for generations; thus no property or house payments. Too bad there is nothing back there anymore the local economy got so bad there people had to move to find jobs. I had to move away myself.
