That is easy to fix as you can make a frame and bolt a EGIS motor to it. I have some pictures somewhere of this setup, will try find it. | |||

| Here are the pictures with EGIS motor and 120cm Andrew and 180cm Andrew to the right. The motor will handle the weight of the 240cm as well but i haven't found a picture yet. The company also sells pre-made metal frames for these dishes or you can make one easy yourself asking some welder doing the frame. | ||

My System: 1.2M, & 55cm Gregorian Dish`s, 1.8m Precision dish Jaeger 1224 H-H motor.Dreambox 800, Vbox-II. SS2 Card. |
The 1224 could probably handle a precision 1.8m dish ok. EGIS motor is ok if you have a big wallet!  | |||

| No i have never installed a Andrews 2.4m. No you can not use the 1224 motor with a 1.8m or 2.4m Andrews, the casting would crack. However a German firm is selling modified 1224 motors where the casing doesn't crack. | ||
