Starlink

[LouNY]

I just installed my dish and I've got to say, I was super duper totally excited to drill two 1 inch holes through the brick to fit the molded connector. I've installed things like this my entire life and that they consider this a self-install kit is surprising.

If you disconnect the cable from the antenna all you need is a 1/2" hole,
is does disconnect when a good straight pull.

Does that apply to the new dish? It did not appear to be able to disconnect hopefully I'm wrong

Are you speaking about the new dish or the old (round) style?

The new rectangular dish the cable will disconect

It does take more of a pull then feels comfortable, I actually contacted tech services about mine as I couldn't see how that big L shaped connector would fit through a decent sized hole.

I read that. I'm sure that it was appreciated. (I edited this post about 8 times to keep from getting a "vacation". )
