The Bird update#1#2 Last update
« on: October 08, 2020, 06:57:54 AM »
Hummingbird problems
Have a 8” mega si g3n. Been flickering an staticky (is that a word)😂 The bird people told me it was frequency interference. Sent me a couple rings for the wiring to help with distortion. Didn’t help. So I’ve been dealing with it often on for a little bit. The last time I was out with the bird. It went white no picture not snow but like white waves. Called them again today with my problem. After a few minutes he says well it’s under warranty why don’t you ship it back to us on our dime and will repair it. 😱😱😱. 24 month warranty and I
was at 19 months. Shipping it out tomorrow. He said once received it’s a three day turnaround I won’t hold my breath but I like the sound of that. I’ll keep ya’ll updated on the bird😉🥃🇺🇸

Update#1
Arrived at the hummingbird facility at 10:55 this morning
. Seven days to get there

Well it’s back on that slow truck coming home. They replaced the circuit board😉🥃🇺🇸

Last and final update received the bird at 3 PM this afternoon, looks great. Won’t be able to put it to use until next week I hope. Bonus! They gave me a cover. pleasantly surprised🤑🤑🤑😉🥃🇺🇸

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

Not going to lie, I was not thinking that.




Ok I lied I was totally thinking that,   :sry:
