So I got an invite to the better than nothing Beta.
Wife said it was ok if I gave her the first payment.
total for the dish, shipping, and taxes came to $582

I'm about an hour north of Grand Rapids, MI.

Let me know if you got any questions and I'll do my best to answer including running some speed tests.

I also have sam knows so I can show you how it does over time.

Expect it to arrive in about a month.

Note: I've got almost 30 years of pc experience and I have used Wildblue satellite internet and I used to install Dish and DirecTV. I'm pretty knowledgeable in this area. I'm also very familiar with DSL and Cable internet...
 
Ok got it installed yesterday night.

Installation was pretty simple I have it sitting on my deck right now.
I'll leave it on the deck till mid spring when it will be safe to be on the deck then I'll install it to the tri-pod I have up there for the WISP radio.

Initial speed test is 80-100/30Mbps with 40ms ping.
Compared to what I get from the wisp at 10-15/o.6Mbps and 50ms ping.
