It depresses me that some of the hobbyist "leaders" are already telling us to
line up and get a 4DTV. Not only have they won the war, but the newbies in
the hobby don't even know that there ever was a war.
TVRO to me is like a fragile plant, you really have to observe it and to make
attempts at helping it along. DSS and the small dish thing is like a weed
that needs no help.
An expensive 4DTV won't help TVRO. And at this point we need some strong
stimulants.
