Is there a specific type of gas piping required for natural gas powered satellite TV equipment?
Do you get better reception with natural gas or propane?

Have a great day!

You haven't seen those before?

Those are those special "FlameThrower" Alien Defense System Output Stations camouflaged to look like satellite dishes so as to not attract their attention. :D

Double check the Model Number before converting to propane. IF it starts with WEBER or CHAR-BROIL then propane is OK, if it starts with Dish or DIrect TV I wouldn't touch it.

Aren't those disconnected RG58U cables a fire hazard? or have they been properly capped off from the gas line.

Self-extinguishing ends which close off when pulled out.

Similar to those found in fuel hoses used as gas stations, only in a much smaller version.
