My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me.

Scanned all of Thor in and as you guys said all the other sats just fell into place.
I am getting 53e - 30w fine with good signals. I will put some pics up once I get round to tidying the cables up around the pole/dish.

I would like to thank everyone above who has helped me with getting this installed and setup.

Excellent news - well done.

Oh, and congratulations on the novel method of correcting the attitude of the pole!

My Patio Mount slab is kept true by small pieces of ply inserted under the relevant corners.
