Blog Entries: 1 My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S  The last noble sat warrior to fly the olden flag of Analogue | Spring clean? Its still winter up here - its been snowing this afternoon! My dishes will get their 6 monthly squirt of GT85 when we get a warm weekend, and I''ll be completely redoing the dish setup as all 4 of the of the euro dishes moved in the new year gales. | ||

The 1m (16E) is on a sagging fencepost mount, propped up with a 4 foot length of wood. The 80cm on 13E is the firmest (fenceposts too) but rotated forewards The 80cm on 19E is on a tyre held in place with a bungee cord & 2 laths of wood The 80cm on 5E is on a 7foot metal pole -- just banged a couple of feet into the ground with a sledgehammer. | |||

My System: 1.2M, & 55cm Gregorian Dish`s, 1.8m Precision dish Jaeger 1224 H-H motor.Dreambox 800, Vbox-II. SS2 Card. | Still got my channel master 1.8m to go up. I have been waiting for the weather to get better. I am going to take the polar mount and get it galved this week hopefully. I might even give my 1.2m Gregorian a wash  I have also got a 90cm Gregorian to go up on the front of the house for my SS2 card. So have plenty to do lol. | ||
