They work very nicely.  You may need to remove all the old electronics 
from the downconverter and just use the passive part of the
antenna, if it is that model.....some models have just passive so they 
are set to go.

can someone on list  point wil to the movie on modifying the 18dbi 
conifer for an example for him?
