Motor31 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 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. Mike, Nancy and the fuzzies.

Kirk W Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 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 . Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......

Motor31 Posted January 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 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. Mike, Nancy and the fuzzies.

paroots Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 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?

Technomadia Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 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. - Cherie Cherie & Chris (and Kiki *meow*) / Personal Blog: Technomadia.com Technomads (technology enabled nomads) since 2006Our Nomadic Fleet: RVs: Zephyr: 1961 GM 4106 bus conversion / Blooper: 2020.5 Winnebago Travato GL Boat: Y-Not: 1999 Bayliner 4788 Hosts of the Mobile Internet Resource CenterMobile Internet Information for RVers, Cruisers & Nomads Proud to be recognized as Escapee's Commercial Partners #773 / Escapees RVOU Instructors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Bill & Janet Adams Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 That's not correct. The HN7000S modem is still being used and service can still be activated. Bill AdamsFull timer since 1997 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Joyce Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 But, you activate the 7000s service through a reseller like http://www.mobilsat.com/ or http://www.rtc-vsat.com/, not Hughesnet itself. 2004 40' Newmar Dutch Star DP towing an AWD 2020 Ford Escape Hybrid, Fulltimer July 2003 to October 2018, Parttimer now.

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

paroots Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Read Bill Joyce's post directly above yours. 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 Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 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. First rule of computer consulting: Sell a customer a Linux computer and you'll eat for a day.

Rif Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 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. 2000 Volvo 770, 500HP/1650FP Cummins N14 and 10 Speed Autoshift 3.58 Rear 202" WB, 2002 Teton Aspen Royal 43 Foot, Burgman 650 Scooter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
