Perhaps I should get a look at it and see if its got any
markings. Just curious if anyone knew anything off hand. Thanks for the
help so far.<br>
<br>
All I know is they were installed to get a direct
connection to the antenna on the mountian, and look like the supplied
pic. Now Hobart gets actual sat coverage, there are oodles of left over
ones around. It would be great if they could be made to work!
