I just discovered this thread -- Sue,
where were you when I was trying to think of some use for our old "dish" (which has now been history for quite a few years) ?! You've turned a piece of junk into an absolutely gorgeous garden area --
Gerry, as far as I know those big satellite dishes were always mounted on a comparably big pole... we were so happy when the cable finally came down our road and we could get rid of the thing. One of our neighbors finally just took his down about a year ago... so I have to think it would still be possible to locate one.
