Verified! Also known as Satellite S3 on older receivers. 
It's also relatively strong. 

Egads, and me here with NO way to view it. 

Roll out 50 rolls of videotape! I'm hoping that using SVHS will 
preserve enough information that they will be playable in a stable
mode later on.

Gadzooks! 

I predict a lifespan of maybe 2 weeks  - find somebody with a C band
system asap if you are interested!

THANKS
