Starlink Teardown: DISHY DESTROYED!
Nov 25, 2020
In this video, I do a full, destructive teardown and light analysis of Dishy – the Starlink User Terminal (dish). This is the first full teardown, so I'm really pleased that I get to be the first to share this with the world. Huge kudos to the Starlink team – this is incredible work, and it must feel great to know that users are finally getting their hands on it.
