When you do fit them, avoid those mortar courses

All my wall mounted Dishes are either at chest height or, in the case of my 80cm Motorised, just above a stout outhouse roof I can stand on.

Absolutely no unpleasant bending

And the big Dish is on a Patio Mount (so I can kick it ................. )

Oddly enough, talking of body casts, I had my left femur rebuilt a few years ago (twice, but that's another story), but it wasn't down to Satellite work. (Old injury, new techniques: Owing more to meccano and scaffolding than to plaster of paree).

My System: andrews dish - jaeger 1224 motor, vantage x221tsci, skystar 2, diablo v2.3, cyfra+

get that bracket changed as i made the mistake of using one of them l shape ones and it bent in some strong wind.

t&k brackets much better once you get a decent wall mount it will last many years

mine holds a channel master dish and 36volt motor which doesn't move about in the wind
