Congratulations MonacoMama, on the new Motosat dish. Yes the larger the dish, the less the rain fade. I am sure you will enjoy this system for years to come!

Besides, it's just plain cool lookin'
Now you need a DataStorm on the rear to balance things out..

Now y'all are part of the "Blue Light Special" crowd! 
Bill, who did your install?

David Nannenga of Satellites In Motion did my install. He is in Willis, TX, just north of Houston off I-45. Was amazingly thorough and did the work in just over 4 hours.

David installed my MotoSAT MHDTV dish, and my MotoSAT F1 Datastorm.
I agree that he does excellent work and I would highly recommend him.

If that's David in the pictures, then he's lost a considerable amount of weight.

The guy in the photos is his assistant. David was inside doing all the wiring. He ran a new HDMI cable from the electronics cabinet in the front to my mid-coach TV. So my front HD DVR now can be seen via HDMI on both the front TV and the mid-ship TV. The TV in the bedroom has its own HD receiver.
Just a note: the new Motosat dish has the opportunity to interfere physically/mechanically with the standard TV antenna. If I am using both, I have to be careful that I don't whack or crunch one with the other.
I second your recommendation. David is fast and does a really high quality job. And he bought my King Dome, to boot, so I didn't have to mess with selling it on ebay.

It looks cool. 
It's a MotoSAT thing.
Kind of like a trademark.

Unfortunately, there's no market for my MotoSAT MHDTV dish.

I thought it might be neat to splash the reflector with something near-UV so it would appear as a big fuzzy purple ball since the eye really cannot define detail at those frequencies..

Us MotoSAT owners won't like that.
But you're going purple anyway.
I don't know if it's trademarked or not, but it is definitely a MotoSAT thing.
The MotoSAT display at FMCA conventions, etc. have blue lights everywhere, and they were handing out little blue LED key chains.
