[QUOTE="s-band, post: 988321, member: 407744"] Good idea but the original mount did not seem to lend itself to it and I couldn't work out how to implement it. I wouldn't call it a design, it just happened that way. There was something wrong with it though. Due to the slight angle away from perpendicular to the hole in the fixed bracket, the thread on the rod caught on the edges of the bracket. Even the small jack can bend 12mm rod! I replaced the rod with a 12mm brass rod threaded just as far as necessary. It hasn't been tried with the dish but seems ok so far. Now I need an 80mm post.
