| Below are a few examples of overall project cost after all is said and done. These are totals after the crane, hotel, food, labor, travel, wages and everything else has been paid. The only things that are not included in these projects are the cost of the satellite equipment, concrete foundation and shipping. Compare these costs to others in the industry and I'm sure you will see that it will benefit you to get involved and consult with me on paying the expenses yourself and having our crew do your project. I know how to keep the cost to a minimum. The prices below are averages, so the price could be cheaper or more expensive depending on the region in the world the work is performed in. Contact me and I will help you determine the cost for your region. I can also assist finding a freight shipping company or help you obtain a shipping container if you need one. A good used shipping container cost about $3000 to $5000 dollars depending on size and condition. Shipping cost depends on where it is coming from and going to. |
| Our first concern on any project is safety. The job must be performed with a safety first attitude. Large satellite earth stations have big heavy steel parts, so the installation or removal does have some dangerous elements to it. We use specially developed safety techniques to insure that every job is performed safely. If it cannot be done safely, we will not do it. We have been thoroughly trained in working with tall ladders, lift trucks, cranes and rigging. We travel well equipped with the proper tools and test equipment to get the job done right. We treat your equipment like it is our own. We understand how fragile and expensive this equipment is and we take special care to see that it is not damaged during the installation/removal or after we leave. We want your satellite system to be trouble free for many years to come when we put our name on it. We have a good reputation for performing high quality professional work and we do everything possible to maintain that reputation. I have over 29 years experience in the industry and any technicians we bring along have a minimum of 10 years hands on experience in the industry. We work in extreme inviroments so we know what to expect anywhere we travel in the world (including the arctic). We do not quit in the middle of a project and leave you hanging. We stay on site once we are committed until you and the customer are satisfied with us leaving. If you want a loyal crew that can get the job done safely and professionally please contact me. We guarantee you our absolute best on every job site. |
| Bigger is always better in the satellite industry. Keeping your large satellite earth station (if possible) is always a better option than replacing it with a smaller dish at a higher frequency. C Band large earth station satellite technology is proven to be the most reliable still to this very day. Large earth stations are less vunerable to changes in the atmosphere and have stronger heavy rigid mounts to withstand severe weather circumstances. We are experts at taking an old satellite earth station that has been written off as trash and making it look and operate like a new one again. We are experts at packing large satellite earth stations into shipping containers for shipping and/or storage. We use specially developed techniques to pack your equipment in shipping containers so it will not be damaged during transit or storage. If you are looking at replacing your satellite earth station please consider reconditioning as an option first. You can recondition most large satellite earth stations for another ten years of service for a fraction of what it cost to install brand new equipment. We can make your dish look and work like a new one again. We can relocate your large satellite earth station for use at another location. Let us evaluate your project and determine if your satellite earth station is worth saving. Please contact me if you would like to schedule an evaulation of your large satellite earth station or discuss a related satellite communications project. |
