[QUOTE="Terryl, post: 873204, member: 369937"] You could do that as it's one way. If the dish has two "U" bolts for the dish to pole mount you can use a spacer at the top one to tilt the dish further down to the ground, a longer "U" bolt may be needed, and the spacer should be something that will stand up to the weather and the stress. Some have had some luck using the cheap plastic kitchen cutting boards, (as they are hard enough and strong) a piece or pieces can be cut to fit and used to move the top of the mount further out from the mast, this will add a few more degrees to the lower elevation adjustment, aluminum can also be used if you can find a thick enough piece. The only drawback to mounting things 180 degrees out is the possibility of water getting into the LNB's. [/QUOTE]
