Heads up - if you have a #Starlink dish in storage, make sure to pull it out at least every 11 months to download firmware and call home even if you don't have an active subscription.
We have one for camping and heard from friends that the dish they had in storage for two years wouldn't connect to the satellites because their firmware was too old.
