Devils are getting their problems with salary cap cleaned up, losing Gomez (Rangers) and Rafalski (Red Wings). Unless they pick up a free agent, either Zajac or Parise (if he's returned to center), or both, become first liners.

Not sure why I left the waste of bandwidth here this long, probably because I've read little here lately, but the troll Dean is now "ignored", just where he belongs in all sioux fans controls.

You'll pass me soon; I"ve been passed by many in the last year, which, I guess, mean I'm getting dumber all the time

I say it's purple, and since I'm over 5000 posts that makes me right (by 7nat. titles standards anyway). At least until 11000 post PCM contradicts me

Hey..... we're expecting blues fans support for two more years in a Sioux jersey

About the second week of September, out of Rowan's Ravine, the week before the big tourney there. About the right timing every year for big fall walleye's, just before the lake turns over; can be good again later, but the water can get kind of hard by then. Diefenbaker is the same way, and not that much further.

Fish=11 lbs, Last Mountain, fall, 1989, my first walleye from that lake, fishing partner was bringing in an 8 pounder at the same time. Birds, all from Divide County, ND

Unfortunately my dish and TV are not where I can see both. My fortec receiver worked OK with my wife at the TV and me on the ladder, both with cell phones (although adjustments with one hand are difficult) , but it is nice to take the receiver outside and see the quality on the front of it, if you don't have the luxury of seeing your TV from the dish. Course everything would be easier with a ground pole mount; trying to see the directions you're pointing when you can't get behind the dish isn't the best setup. It may be the soft steel that bothers me on the fortec dish and mounts more than the elevation scale. I haven't worked with steel that soft before, it just doesn't seem like steel to me. But the specs say it is galvanized steel?

Sound like Sioux Xtra will be ready to go on Aug. 1. No info on the charges yet though.

Actually, I have, at that's why I'd recommend against them. Are you a fortec salesman? The winegard dish beats the fortec in quality of construction, and, it's made in the US. The fortec "galvanized steel", both in the bracket and dish, is like working with putty. I've never worked with steel this soft. Very hard to believe this is actually steel. Be extra careful when you're tightening things, it will squash easily. At any rate, PSB can give you one of the best deals on a KU band FTA system. I don't know why someone would want to pay slightly more for lower quality. The fact that the fortec elevation scale is so far off makes it tough to point, especially for someone doing it for the first time. Once pointed, it works just fine (us long as one is extra careful not to bend or squash the steel). For these reasons, I'll avoid them in the future. And, I prefer the traxis 3500 receiver to the fortec lifetime classic na, and it's cheaper. Both do the job, however. The traxis has a digital quality readout on the front of the box, which is handy to take outside with you to point the dish.
-
One additional warning. Do not buy a fortec dish; the elevation scale is wrong by a large margin, and that makes it a nightmare for a first timer to point, since you cannot go by the scale, you have to do trial and error for elevation. Several people with the Winegard 2076 say their scale is much closer, so I'd go with that one if I were buying again.

If I can find out anything about the litter, I'll post it on your board.

Very possible, the Konley's are picky about who gets to use Remington as the stud, needs to have a good pedigree, etc. I see they have another young male for stud also (Gringo).

The phone number for the puppies is my home town, Martin, ND (just west of Harvey).

Does make one wonder what words Diggler sings in church, and does he wear a cape?

Unfortunately, yes. Fixed makes less problems for hunting, and training, as the usual run around town females in heat drive the males crazy. Nice looking female on your site; I like the wide flat head look. Not at all hard to install, I don't think you can beat the system prices from PSB. Site shows 195 for fixed and 257 for motorized, shipping included. You can't go wrong with his traxis 3500 systems, both the fixed and motorized are the same equipment, one just adds a motor. And both PSB and iceberg on this site are extremely helpful with your install if your having problems (via message boards, etc). The traxis receiver is great in that the signal quality is shown on the front of the receiver, so you can take the box outside to help you point the dish, don't need the box and tv out there. Just remember you need a clear view of the southern sky, with no trees or buildings in the way. With the motor, you'll be able to hit sats from nearly an entire arc from ese to s to wsw (about 100 to 240 degrees, depending on your location).

My lab is out of this male. Female was a black from Casselton, so my male is black, but is built much like his dad (except for being the "right" color)

A couple good articles on setting up a motoroized system. http://www.satsig.net/polmount.htm http://www.dmsiusa.com/documents/SG2100%20easy%20manual.pdf

It's not unusual, however, for most of the Sioux team to be sitting in the penalty box
-
And, if you don't want to haul a TV outside or on the roof, or don't have a small one. consider this new rather reasonably priced receiver, which shows the signal quality right on the front of the receiver. And, here's a good download for finding the elevations, azimuth, and skew for a number of satellites, by entering the lat/long for your location. Or, if you don't want to download and install something, here's an online angle calculator. Visit the forum in my sig for more info on equipment and installations. If you don't own a system yet, you can learn a lot and be ready for an install when you get the system. Like bincity posted, don't try a last minute install on the day of the first home game, you want to get the system installed and pointed well ahead of time, you'll have questions when you first install it, and trying to do a hurry up job on the day of the first home game probably won't work. Many people on the forums are professional installers and are happy to help you with your questions.

Still the same humble, unassuming guy he was as a player. Great guy, great player. Phil was a guest on one of the FSSN games last season.

I love new words for the ss.com dictionary (and you've kind of combined animal and vegetable all in one). And, btw, only sudo reporters and pre-madonna's are accepted here.

but that's not behind closed doors information

But only if they have thousands of posts
