I did have two when I subscribed to satellite because I wanted the Spanish channels and they were on a different satellite.I kept my hidden although

Lol I just wish one of them was mine. lol it does seem a tad bit excessive though. nice shot

Maybe they're his, hers, ours and theirs!!!!

I understand it... one dish is so lonley... I hear there are social creatures, so they bought a companion for it. But then, they really grew tired of each other's company all the time so they met another couple and now hang out together every day except Sunday when the other couple goes to her mother's for Sunday dinner... :-)

I watch very little TV ....but I think this is the norm.....and OMG I don't have cable, satelite, or any of that stuff.

Seems silly to me, too, but in their defense, it looks like two are pointed in one direction, and two are pointed in another. I wonder if it's two antennas each for two houses. I wonder if they're paying two (or four) Dish TV subscriptions.

Well, I think I'm with you there........my tv is mumbling away in another room right now, talking to itself as usual! I don't have one of these pets, but I think PJ mught be right, about their sociability! By the way, did you folks know that you can get HDTV on many channels with rabbit ears.(regular old antennae, and for FREE, but no fancy store will tell you that!) no special cables or boxes needed.........the satellites beam it above us, depending on where we live! chuckle, chuckle....

I'm sure the story is very interesting. I've noticed how they're disguising cell phone towers as trees these days. This could be a new cottage industry for dish cosmetics.

They should paint Mickey and Minnie's faces on the fence, and paint the dishes black! Wait, they will be watching TV, so you should paint it for them! ;) Todd

mo, me too think like you I am in accord totally

What a funny pic and story! There should be a genre for social comment!! Maybe when I become senile and housebound we'll get one (or a few!).

Well a big family... they cant see diffent channels at the same time. That is why LOL., My husband has 1. I dont need any, but if I wanted to watsh TV, it certainly was not the Foodball, so I would have needed on of my own. :) Funny shot Tara :)))

excelente captura

Maybe they have double vision lol Seems strange to me too... Well spotted though :)

Well, you know how some people are....betcha it's for watching multiple football games at once :o) Good one Tara !

OMG...love the comments from all over the place. I recon is better doubble it than not to have any. I have one only suite my fine. Must be this guy is a secret agent or some kind, you know those ppl need to be in contact 24/7. Great shot Tara thanks for the uplifting mood you created with your capture.

I think this person is so paranoid that if the front one breaks down, then the other 3 are there for back up LOL great capture hugs Jane xx

Hmmm... I only see things like this with multiple family homes in a city. Not with a single home... I wonder how many fridges he owns for the beer... LOL! Thanks for the share!!

great capture...

Maybe one dish for each room?!!

interesting mixture ,nice.

About three too many if you ask me, had satellite once, was not impressed with it, went back to cable, but we only got one dish out of the deal. Excellent capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i wonder what the collective name would be for these ?

i know that if you have dish for the internet you need a dish one for tv and one for the internet. the other two I would not know. I do know it would cost up front for the internet around $600 to get it install and about $59 amonth. I see two the all pointing in diff ways so that tell me each one is on a diff staterlite so if all the have is tv then they got more channels than most people have in all languages

Hi Tara TV too much is watched easier not to deal with things my opinion anyway this is awesome brings a smile it does wonder what is on tonight sweet smile to you warm hug, Linda

Maybe they are working for FBI or KGB! :)

It's a breeding center for dishes, they planted two and now they have multiplied, if you go back next week there might be more. I have one dish only and thats just to keep her indoors happy whilst I sit at the computer. Great shot Tara, keeps us informed anyhow. Bravo!!!!!

WELL DONE

You don't watch TV? Blasphemy!!! Back to the Middle Ages with you! How about a horse and carriage, a wood stove, kerosene lamps and/or a telephone party line? I have only rabbit ears for the TV, no cable or satellite, but I definitely have to have TV just for Saturday college football, some basketball, my favorite shows 24 and Desperate Housewives. And my tons of movie DVDs. Terrific clarity in this nteresting shot of the satellite dishes, just doing their thing.

i think its a bit excessive aswell tara .we have one dish but like you i dont watch much tele either ,in fact it gets on my nerves lol :o) mick
