[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1058336, member: 178786"] You are possibly right that I need more practice to assemble the IRTE polar mount correctly. I openly admit in my "install" topics that I am a bodger at jobs relating to hobbyist satellite equipment. However, from advice kindly given on this forum over the years I have got to the stage where I can setup a Jaeger 1224 H-H motor and a Precision Antennas polar mount to accurately track a satellite arc with dishes ranging in size from 1.2m to 2.2m. I would have given your above comment more credence had it come from someone who was capable themselves at accurately installing a motorised dish. However, are you not the person who could not accurately install a TD110 dish dish on a DiSEqC motor and had to get someone round to sort it out for you?

However, until then in my personal opinion you are out of your depth on this subject. [/QUOTE]
