Yes it does fit with a little modification

You have to add some angle brackets to the bottom set

of bolts and also extend the threaded bar at the top.

I think scopous is the best person to ask as its his mod.

Was thinking about doing it my self.

I have a C/master 1.2m dish and polar mount here if you want too swap them for your 1224 mate?

Thanks for the images...I will contact scopous to get more details out of him...

As of now I am not selling the 1224 but may do so once I manage to sort out a decent mount for the Fibo

Hello!
i bought this mount in auktion house should reveive this week!
then i can try after winter is over on other antennas,

is there,a special adapter plate nesercary,between the polarmount,and the antenna,i have the 90 cm cm,but curencly not installed coz the polarmount was missing,now the system is complete i hope..
maybe still miss some parts?
to conect th emount,on the backside?


i only heavey big 36" acutrators,maybe i must buy small 8" acurator,outerwise it could happen that i dont have the full range,like on gibertini ,when i use big motors,so what should i do?

18inch actuator should be well enough for a 90cm dish

The channelmaster/Andrews adapter for the 1224 would probably work, as the dish mounting bolts on the 1.2m fibo`s are different to the 90cm fibo bolts.

You would have to drill new holes for the location of the 90cm mounting bolts on the adapter plate.

An 18" actuator would be fine for that channel master mount. Can you get hold of any more c/master polar mounts?
