I don't know about others, but if it was me I'd rip that thing off and sell it for as much as I could ASAP. I think the dish-based subscription tv systems are going to be hard to get rid of pretty soon, as they will largely be replaced by streaming services.

My thoughts are the same regarding my Intellian dish now that I have Starlink. Only paid $600 for the dish though so I still should come out ahead.

Re: -Temp gauge...so, what is it?
Look at a GM engine with fuel injection- they have a two wire sender in one of the heads- it will have one yellow wire and one black wire- it feeds the ECM, the one at the thermostat housing goes to the gauge. This is the reason "But the gauge didn't show that it was overheating!" needs to be stricken from boater's vocabulary- these senders need to be immersed in water and if the raw water supply has been blocked (or the thermostat is stuck closed, water passages are blocked, etc), the gauge won't show an overheat, but the ECM will see it and go into RPM reduction (the real term, not 'Limp mode').
