[QUOTE="Old Satellite, post: 19708, member: 175277"] A 3.8 mtr dish requires substantial ground works approx 1 cubic mtr of concrete as a pad foundation plus approx 125 mm pole etc. You can only normally only fit this type of dish to a building if you have a roof area that is designated with the approprite loading on its construction. Normally a civil engineer, etc would be required here as well as zoning or planning permission permits etc. The Polorotor is a mechnical device, and not a magnetic device you normally require such as the Echostar or simlar recievers to operate a polorotor, this is required to Adjust the Skew very accurately. Installing a 3.8 mtr satellite dish is not for the normal do it yourself, the avarage dish is approx 250 -300 kg and requires lots of help! If you take a look at the Patriot web site you will see you can download the manual for the dish and it provides a lot of very usefull information on installtion requirements etc [url]http://www.sepatriot.com/[/url] Regards old Satellite [/QUOTE]
