My System: Technomate 1500ci+ super (upstairs), Phoenix Apollo MC (downstairs) both running off a cheapo 80cm dish with a twin output monoblock 13° & 19.2°. Sky+ (downstairs) piped 'round the house. |
Thought I show a piccy of my 'main' PC! (TM 1500 & DVD recorder on desktop), pretty humdrum, but I hope you'll be impressed by the shelf dedicated to extensions and plugs..... 22 plugs (+ 3 more on l/h side), 25 in total  .Scares the missus to death  ....Second PC in same bedroom less impressive, just a spare really  .... another 2 PC's for the kids, 1 in my workshop and a laptop downstairs (No serial port, hence Apollo OTA), all networked.Phoenix Apollo,sky+ & DVD recorder downstairs.... and god forbid a 'Normal' 28" TV (not even widescreen!), My choice  | ||

| Nice set up Oily, with good clear view of the arc by the looks of it . One thing though, and this is my own opinion, I would never put the top bracket that high up on a gable end wall. I've seen half a gable end pulled out in high winds with a 80cm dish mounted that high. JuMbuCk  | ||

| Sorry about that remark Oily, but the ex father in law had a cowboy put a 80cm dish up high on the middle of a gable end. He lived in Torquay, Devon half way up a hill. During one of their gales in the 90's lost over 9 rows of bricks. The more rows of bricks above the brackets the stronger the anchor. Hope that you do not have a problem. Not much worth looking at past 45* west anyhow. Last edited by Jeff_19341; 29-01-2006 at 11:03 AM | ||

Ive got the motor - just need a warm weekend now to get it set up. I get some funny looks from the neighbours, but dont really care. They used to be sheilded from view to some degree by dense roses, but next door cut them down last summer... Note there isnt a decent permanent mount to be seen - 2 sets of fence posts, a tyre, and an old metal post borrowed from the local allotment which has been banged into the ground a couple of feet with my sledge hammer! | ||

 It occasionally blows the others out of alignment, but 2 minutes pulling on the dishes normally has them back on beam | |||
