[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1013181, member: 178786"] The need to have a vertical pole depends on the mount being used to attach the dish to the pole. If something like a polar mount or Jeager 1224 H-H motor is being used then it is the alignment of the mount on top of the pole that is important. If the top of the pole that the mount is seated on is not cut at 90 degrees to the vertical length of pole then even if the pole is vertical in all planes the mount will not be aligned correctly. In addition, if anything like a pole size adapter is being used then these often have a levelling system inbuilt. [URL='https://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/4-5-to-3-pole-adapter.170895/']Just Sharing This - 4.5" to 3" Pole Adapter[/URL] The need for vertical poles is more related to dishes mounted on diseqc motors that can slide up or down the pole rather than have a need to sit on top.
