[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 1016400, member: 243342"] So hung my CM back on yesterday and other than breaking the Venture actuator, I am pretty happy with the install - much more solid that the previous. I've also closed the 1mm gap in the strings by putting a washer behind one of the mounting points of the dish. Still need to tweak alignment but it's close. The new dish position is giving me an extended range from 58W to 57E. The latter is rather iffy as there's just too much in the way - trees, houses but I did lock Duhok TV at around 5dB (probably efficiency of an 80cm dish at this end). Haven't tried C band here yet but not expecting miracles. 55E is booming in, though, which is what I wanted. Tidying up to do on cabling etc. but here are WIP pics (dish looking at 45W).
