[QUOTE="archive10, post: 976079"] I did this for temp setup of CM180: [URL="https://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/q-d-verification-set-up-of-channel-master-180-for-28-2e.146872/"]Q&D verification set-up of Channel Master 180 for 28.2E[/URL] It is a fence post from the builder's market. It's attached with simple L-brackets to a pallet, and supported by a CM120 wall/roof mount. ...but it wasn't very substantial - a little bit of wind at it was wobbling quite a bit. (I took it down again after a couple of hours). When I needed to experiment with some 120cm dishes, I instead went for a DIY tripod built entirely from low-cost pressure treated wood. Worked ok, but still wobbling a bit in the wind (I later put some sand-bags over the legs to keep tripod fixated). [ATTACH=full]94529[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]94530[/ATTACH] It's literally six planks and a wooden fence post, and some decking screws. [/QUOTE]
