[QUOTE="blademedia, post: 1019019, member: 409057"] Hi moonbase, Yes I still have the mount but its not for sale at the moment, but I could easily make another to your specification, there easy to make now ive done one the next one will be a breeze, (2. Can it be adapted for inclined orbit tracking?) Yes the one ive nearly finished will have inclined orbit tracking I'm copying this design [ATTACH=full]108137[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]108138[/ATTACH] (3. Can it be adapted to mount a Precision antenna with a [COLOR=#ff0000]1200 millimetre rear mounting ring[/COLOR] (not the usual 600 millimetre mounting ring)?) Where talking a big dish, as long as I have accurate measurements its not a problem, I would need to know the size of dish for the pole cap, it sounds like you will need a minimum of 6.5 inch cap, If your wanting total precision motorized AZ/EL is the way to go the most accurate mount in the world, [ATTACH=full]108139[/ATTACH] The above mount can easily be made, the only issue here is cost, the lazy Susan/ slewing ring is around £500 alone.
