[QUOTE="cossie0, post: 58921, member: 180573"] Nice dish but looking at that mount it looks like a strong breeze will have the dish blowing over. You will need to anchor it solid to the ground with NO movement whatsoever. The wind loading on a dish that size will be massive even in a moderate breeze. Can I state the obvious? You need the dish aligned with the satellite arc. You need to take into account your location in degrees north and degrees west or east of the meridian line which goes through London when setting your dish angles. You need to set elevation and declination. Do some google searches to get your exact position and search for information on dish setup. There is a wealth of information and you can become an expert in no time. Buy a satellite signal meter which also helps or use your receiver. I had to take mine outside with a portable TV when doing mine for the fine adjustments. Hope that helps [/QUOTE]
