Letter Re: Parabolic Dish Shoutcasting

Mr. Rawles,
Regarding Skyrat’s and other SurvivalBlog.com readers that may be interested in obtaining large C-Band dishes for Shoutcasting, I have a potential free source: I work in the satellite industry and often receive calls requesting that decommissioned and obsolete C-Band dishes be removed from the roofs or ground mounts of hotels throughout the country. When the hotel management receives the estimated cost for the removal, more often than not, they reluctantly decline to have the eye-sores removed. Some enterprising readers may be able to negotiate a deal with a local hotel manager to remove a dish at no charge to the hotel. It’s a Win-Win scenario for all concerned. The hotel gets an eye-sore removed and the Shoutcaster gets a free 8, 10, or 12 foot diameter dish [to supplement] secure communications at a retreat. Best Regards – RPH
