Thumbs up My motorised setup

Its an 80 cm (unbranded) and I have reception from 45e to 45w. I think the garage is in the way for anything further than 45e .

Twin output LNB, one goes through the motor to my reciever for control, and the other goes directly to my dvb-s2 pci card. Other than that, its nothing really too fancy.

Some pics are below of the dish at 45 east and 45 west along with a few of the underside showing the wiring.


Thanks

Nice pictures

Just one thing though, I wondered why you have put the wall bracket on upside down?

I think I would be a bit worried that should the nuts come a bit loose, someone is going to get donked on the head.

This looks quite like mine and although i have put my bracket the way you suggest the recommended way to have it is the way he has fitted it, as any water runs out the bottom and does not pool in the bend of the bracket.

Thanks.

Dont worry, they are on tight enough and it has been up for over 1 year already


I really hope to upgrade it sometime sometime within the next 6 months to something better

Get yourself a couple of 12 inch TK brackets when you upgrade
