[QUOTE="Riverblue, post: 896962, member: 389552"] After getting all the bits I needed together I have finally got round to setting up my Channel Master 1.2m. It is on a fixed azel mount on a 3" pole NPRM placed on the ground and will be used solely for 7W. I have not permanently fixed the NPRM as I am looking for the best place to site it out of view, when I have I will fix through the NPRM into the concrete path on one side of my house. I am using an Inverto black ultra single lnb on the 1.2m, my motorised 1.0m also has an ibu, but it is a quad. I set up a temporary lead for the 1.2 to see what results I was getting off of 7W. Conditions were clear, sunny and still. My Dr F15 was showing 11.0 / 11.1dB on Qatar TV HD on 10719 V 27500 with the 1.2m. When I swapped over to the 1.0m I was getting 9.0/9.1 dB on the same program/transponder. I might be able to eek out a bit more when I do the final install and fix everything down more securely. :) Overall I am very happy with the improvement in signal reception, I can see it will be worth the effort :D I hope it will be enough to counter the effects of rainy/cloudy weather. 1.2m dish [ATTACH=full]67765[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]67771[/ATTACH] 1.0m dish [ATTACH=full]67772[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]67773[/ATTACH] Searching other tp's the increases were similar with the 1.2m dish. Pictures of the final setup will follow. [/QUOTE]
