Have a 4228 but want to add a CM preamp. Can anyone point me to a store in the GTA (I am in Newmarket) that carries theses guys?

Can anyone recommend a reliable dish installer in the GTA. Nothing fancy, I just need it mounted onto a brick wall & a couple of holes drilled into the house. Any help would be much appreciated!

Please PM me with the details.

Thanks!
Joe

Anyone has a good recommendation for getting the gear to try OTA in Ottawa...

Guess I would need everything... from the tuner to the antenna...

Tigerbangs is a DHCer and well known OTA antenna expert on many websites who resides in the US and comes up to Ottawa fairly often. If he's around he might be of help or with some advice here. Check out his Instant Messaging links if you want to see if he's still up in Ottawa:

MAKE SURE to tell him that Stampeder sent you from DHC so that he doesn't mistakenly send you back here.

I've been looking for a Winegard HD7084P antenna. No one seems to be selling them. I'm leery about ordering it thrugh the mail due to possible damage (12' box)
Any help would be appreciated. BTW I also tried to get it around Buffalo with no results.

If you don't have any luck I highly recommend the Wade Delhi 936 with the VU-8PZ UHF enhancement kit. Let us know if you have luck finding the Winegard product though if you decide to keep trying.

I have read the FAQs and all that, but can anyone in the Hamilton, Burlington, Brantford area, or the GTA that has these gear installed like a few poster here that have pictures up, tell me where I can buy them, and how much?

ChannelMaster 4228 and a 9521A Rotator

I'll also need a tripod, as am going to be putting it on the roof

I just bought a CM4228 from Neutron Electronics in Guelph. They had to order it in and it took about a week and a half, but they were the best deal anywhere.
Great friendly customer service.
Give Rick a call.

whats the best deal for a CM4228?

I got mine for 90$ i thought that was good enough, and it was close.

england · 2006-09-14, 09:52 PM

The last 2 posters, how much did you guys pay for it?

Ham.Clan · 2006-09-18, 10:50 AM

This is for all the people in and around the Brantford-Woodstock corridor.

I had my OTA gear installed on Saturday by Wight Electronic Services out of Princeton. Lorne is the owner/installer and he did an incredible job for a very reasonable price.

I called him on Thursday and he was out to my house on Saturday.

Earlier I had called the 2 other installers in Brantford and they said they couldn't even get out for at least 2 weeks. One shop even had my old rotor in their shop for repair for two weeks and never even looked at it. They actually told me this, I'm not making it up. Two weeks! Poor, poor customer service.

But Lorne was great. He wasn't familiar with the CM4228 and thought I was crazy for replacing my big old directional antenna with it, but after everthing was wired and operational he couldn't get over the quality of the signal it was catching. He said he'd be doing the same at his house.

Anyway, that's my plug for Wight's Electronic Services. A very positive experience from start to finish.
