[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 1064343, member: 176256"] I needed the brackets in a hurry and couldn't wait for a delivery as I only had a few more days left in France at the time so could only find time to go to a local shop in Orange. As it turned out I ordered them in the UK and brought them out with me the next time. I do have my suspicions about the place though. After I had installed the 1m dish the wind blew it out of alignment and my friends had to call them in to realign it. They couldn't find Astra 28! Our friends had to do without TV for four months until I came out. They blamed the installation and said wasn't very professional but I managed to find it with my meter. I suspect that they weren't used to dishes larger than 80cm. I had to screw some extra straps onto the dish to beef it up and (touch wood) it hasn't moved since. They also said that 1m wasn't needed and 80cm was big enough which I consider to not be giving best advice nowadays. [/QUOTE]
