[QUOTE="John, post: 979743, member: 175005"] Setting the scene ..... Iv'e had a Precision 1.2 mtr PF with it's own 1224 motor just sitting about for nearly two years doing nothing. It's a cracking dish and should not have to suffer the indignation of it.... I'm going to use it with it's beautifully small factory designed feed / C120 flange arrangement coupled onto a recently obtained Octagon OTLSO Ku lnbf, modded to C120 flange to fit the Precision. The Octagon is very small with it's white cover on, almost invisable with it's cover off, and does not add to any signal blocking as it sits nicely behind the small Precision feed. The C120 flange was from a faulty Ku lnbf. The Precision will replace a CM 1.2 that is at high level on the roof..... where it was originally. The possible problem with the CM is that when it's now looking at 65 West the bottom arm is very very close to the ridge tiles and if i make a mistake with an inclination movement i could do some damage to it. So .... thought i would have a play to see if the Octagon is any good when modded to C120 flange or not. Just a few pics to go with the words ... [/QUOTE]
