[QUOTE="mapperuo, post: 878172, member: 389888"] So after much ca-fuffle I've chosen the 1.8m Raven to install to replace one of my existing dishes.. It'll be a slow install over many months, yet to source & buy the dish even! But the first part has arrived! Lots and lots of concrete for a good base. Shall add more photos as it comes together. In this first photo, my existing dishes, 1m fixed on 22W, 1.2m motorised above it, 1.3m motorised to the left. The motorised dishes get 30W - 45E quite easily, could go further west if I tried. New dish will probably be going infront of the 1.2m, It'll probably get in the way of it even with the 1.2m up high, so it's possible Ill be removing the two dishes on the right to make room, We shall see. Stand wise, Im going for a tripod type stand on screw bolts embedded into a concrete slab I'll lay. I like the idea of being able to adjust the level of the stand, vs a pole sunk in concrete which I've done before with the 1.2. [/QUOTE]
