I got an iMac today! It's been sitting unused since probably 2003. The building it was in hasn't been climate controlled in a while too.
It wasn't booting but I did manage to clone the drive. The CD drive worked too but the speaker foam fell apart XD

I made the VRC version first. I textured the hoodie to look like the Maroon Tour t-shirt from the band Barenaked Ladies.

I attempted to get something but no luck.
The LNB has to be adjusted for the dish so I need to get really close to a satellite so I can make all the other adjustments.
I'm using a projector screen tripod. I bought it so long ago the screen was already damaged but it'll have to be replaced.

My PiHole Debian server corrupted or something so I'm testing the computer for other things.
I installed DragonOS which comes with a bunch of SDR programs. This one is SDRangel which can decode ADS-B for airplane tracking.
I'm waiting for a properly tuned antenna to arrive.

Picked up one of these satellite finders for pretty cheap.
Next is to find an LNB for my old satellite dish.

I wired them up together and swapped out the bulbs for LEDs. It's what I had on hand, definitely needs lower watt equivalent.
The color diffusion on the ceiling looks so cool in person!

Gave it a quick wipe down and a dusting inside.
Not as heavy as I thought it would be so I can easily hang it up!

My RG174 50ohm coax cable, SMA connectors, and NooElec adapter box arrived!
This weekend I'm hoping to build a double cross antenna to receive NOAA weather satellite imagery.
I'm deciding if I should use solid copper rods (grounding stake), copper tubing, or galvanized wire.
Also Bun Inspector!
