price needs to improve, the project will slow down a bit after the halving on June 30th. 8 months to break even will not entice to many people to jump on board
@Lombo22 I do agree but I think some projects are more about long term passive income
Keep in mind the blue tubing you used to protect the cable and the connector at the antenna location can trap moisture, and raise the risk of corrosion on the connector. It might be a better option to leave it exposed to the air.

@Xrave You can probably see that the connector is protected by black insulating tape and only the cable is in a corrugated hose. I think this is better for protecting it from rain, snow, or at least that's how I do it. Any water that penetrates can weaken the signal by a few dB, which we definitely don't want.

Is your antenna water cooled…?
@Carnbrea I think I didn't understand you very well. You are asking if it is water-cooled, it is located outside in the open air to have the best possible view of the sky without obstacles for better satellite reception, of course it is exposed to all atmospheric conditions. If you meant this blue ribbed hose, that's for the cables. I like to additionally protect everything possible.

@dm69 it looked like the blue water pipe we have here in the UK. It’s a good idea to put the cables through a duct - I’m keeping an eye on all the install photos for good ideas like yours before I order a geod miner myself.
From the idea to the implementation, everything went smoothly, I assume with some minor problems that are being resolved along the way, the project is still active with over 18,000 stations, it participates in all major fairs, I hope it will come to EXPO 2027 in Serbia.
The support is commendable.
Keep it up.
