Went to install a guys DTV satellite today.

Only had one problem. He left the mounting plate attached to the old house. LOL

Client: "I don't think we will need any of those mounts on your quote. The former owners left them all behind for us!"

Yeah, too bad when they brought all the TVs with them, they also brought the attached "other half" of the brackets...

Fired the guy today.

It was one thing after another. So I just told him I'm not really interested in doing any of this any longer.

I felt SO much better afterwards.


Also had my doubts I would get paid.

use these! MUCH smaller. Great product. All I use now for analog audio. I dont need to mention how much less they cost than the Crestron!!

I use the SB-1's all the time. The issue here is distance. The TE's are rated around 325 ft. The Crestron extenders are rated at 2000 ft .

Our team (not me) was retrofitting wires in an attic the other day - and it was cloudy all day. This is 10 am in May in Central Florida:

Working on a theater last week and next. Trying to convince owner to paint the ceiling a darker color (for the love of video - anything that's not white!).

Entertainment for the long work week. I hear from an 80 something-year-old client every year or thereabouts when he hears of some new way to get rid of his dish network and get all of his channels by some form of magic. He asked me about a new one that is being advertised everywhere he says. Uses your house wiring for an antenna. Holy Toledo, are people gullible.

I've seen similar ads in the past. This gadget must work because it has a patient. (There once was a patient for an anti-gravity machine) At best this would be a multi-path "accelerator".

Don't send this ad to the science challenged Congress or they'll be hooking it to the power grid in order to be able to monitor everything inexpensively.

TBD and SB: the panels, track and fabric are all from Kinetics. The "BAD" panel is called a TAD from Kinetics. We have had a great experience working with them. Shown are the basic engineering/panel layout and the same with the fabric shown as generated for us by Kinetics.
