Hughesnet equipment

[Motor31]

Hi,

Having a going out of hughesnet experience. I realize this is a long shot but any SKP's or others in the Tucson area I have the following that is going away. I say Tucson because shipping isn't really an option.

 

A complete hughesnet 7000 tripod system with OPI.

 

Since I used to be an installer I have fiddly bits too.

 

Multiple spare radios and recievers.

power supply

lipstick (for TV reception including an adjustable arm)

 

If anyone interested let me know asap. We're changing rigs and I need to clear the basement this week. Price is very negotiable, anything from nuthin on up will be considered otherwise it's all going into recycling.

That looks a lot like the list that I had for Starband when I moved on about four years ago. Good luck selling out as I only got $400 for all of my collection and figure that I was lucky to get it .

[Motor31]

Not worried about making money, I figure the system paid for itself with the use I got out of it over the last 9 years. Just want to clear out the basement and stop hauling "stuff" we don't use anymore.

I too have a complete HN7000S tripod system I'd like to sell since we recently sold our RV. I'm located in the Stuart, FL area. If interested you may reach me at 505-227-3492. Any suggestions on where best to advertise? Thanks

We tried to sell our Hughesnet Tripod system last year.. with little luck.

 

We ended up contacting http://www.oregonrv.net, who buys up old satellite parts and refurbishes them for sale. He bought the valuable pieces that were shippable (what he paid barely covered the packaging materials and hassle), and the rest we disposed of.

That's funny. I bought a tripod-based setup a little over a year ago, and the cost of shipping was more than what I paid for the system.

i thought a hugesnet system could not be reactivated once it was activated that's what i heard but i dunno

[Bill & Janet Adams]

That's not correct. The HN7000S modem is still being used and service can still be activated.

thanks for clearing that up!! i was speaking to another mobile isp provider and from what he told me is they could not be reactivated not that i belived it.

[Bill Joyce]

But, you activate the 7000s service through a reseller like http://www.mobilsat.com/ or http://www.rtc-vsat.com/, not Hughesnet itself.

Thanks. I just called HughesNet and they claimed it was obsolete and could not be activated. Can you elaborate? Thanks

Thanks. I also found Montana Satellite (http://www.montanasatellite.com/). Tom was extremely helpful getting my prospective buyer setup and ready to go in the Bahamas. It was funny since it had been so long since I had used the equipment that I failed to get a receive signal from the G28 satellite Tom specified. Tom told me to check that I hadn't reversed the coax cables. Sure enough that was the problem

 

There is one outstanding issue that perhaps someone can advise me on. My dish was setup to also receive two Dish Network satellites while pointing at the SatMex5 117W Hughes satellite. My buyer is also interested in Dish Network. What might the solution be aside from getting a separate dish?

[skp51443]

Hughes made offset adapters for Dish when pointed at a few different satellites, we were on 99 for Hughes and had the 110 and 119 Dish LNBs hung off one side of it. Never saw one that had three LNBs though.

I'd contact Don Marr at Oregon RV Satellite Service. He would have what you need. If I remember correctly he has even manufactured some new BOW's in the not too far distant past.

Thanks Stanley and Rif. We'll contact Don.
