Hi All,
Going to put up a motorised system, not really sure what to buy and seems a bit of a minefield out there!
I'm no stranger to satellite, I've had lots of systems since the 1980s, my first dish had a horn type magnetic polarizer(Remember those?)
I used to lean out the window to physically move the dish to get different satellites.
I've never had a motorised setup and quite fancy one, It's going to be more of a hobby than actually watching the content.
Looking for advice on the following 3 items please.
Receiver: Whatever is current and is good at feed hunting with a decent Blind Scan!
Dish: up to 1m, Triax TD88 I was thinking of but open to suggestions.
Motor: To move above dish, TM 2600 or Dark Motor? No idea what to buy.
I'm very well versed with E2 boxes and have repaired/modified a lot over the years, but will probably get something else as the main rx for feed hunting.
Location is South Wales UK, pretty good sweep of the arc from my location.
