1980's MACOM OLD SATELLITE TV EQUIPMENT

THE HAPPY SATELLITE NERD EPISODE 21
History lessen of the analog olden days in the 1980 technology Cband satellite equipment, The receiver, The LNB, The Dish mover Control box, The VideoCipher II descrambler and The actuator are some of the I main components that you need to have for a satellite dish earth station. In this video we discuss the MACOM analog satellite receiver and compare it to a modern digital satellite receiver and how the newer Technology makes setup up of these systems so much easier. We discus the 1980 MACOM descrambler from back when the analog satellite channels were scambled and you could buy a descrambler box that would get the premium channels and the movie channels. I remember the days with cable having to have a cable box connected to the descrambler box and going to the TV.
A similar device was discussed on a recent episode of the Oddity Archive: Episode 125.5 – Ben’s Junk: VideoCipher II
A couple of obsolete, useless (to me) bits of Pay-TV history—so, of course, I bought them.
We discuss the LNB and cement on how much bigger the lnb is compared to a modern LNB.
These are components the people who sold me the dish on Kijiji though I would need to be able to watch satellite TV. I tried to explain to them that everything was mostly digital DVB S and S2 on satellite but they just looked at me blankly.

:My apologias for my pointing with my Middle finger in this video if you are offended by that thing. I did not realize i was pointed with it until i was editing the video!
