  1. communicationsA small-sized satellite dish.

    I looked at it and there is almost nothing there for me that I do not already receive with a combination of my analog $200 receiver and my $99 DBS minidish. On the contrary, there are quite a few channels that have gone digital that I receive (for a fee) thru the minidish.
