[QUOTE="archive10, post: 930312"] Sorry you haven't been able to make the existing dish work, but yes, a new motorised dish would be a lot easier. The Channel Master 120 you have now is, as others have pointed out, overkill for 19.2E. I get 19.2E on a 40 cm dish here in Denmark (!) You should be will catered for with a 60 cm dish (Triax, Gibertini, Technomate, whatever) off an L-bracket on the wall. Or an 80 cm one just to be sure you don't loose signal when the summer down-pours hit. So for worry-free 19.2E, get a new dish on an L-bracket on the wall. Cheap, cheerful, practical. Now, another story is your existing kit. You have a Channel Master 120 on a polar mount. Assuming you may deal with the rust on the mount one way or the other, the hardware is capable of recéiving thousands of channels with the addition of an actuator and a new LNB. That is, of course, if you do find channel-hunting interesting. Your existing kit could be a delxue version of a channel hunters dream, or could be a massive hassle to setup and maitain, depending on where you're coming from. So... do you want 19.2E easy as possiblbe, or do you want to go feed-hunting? The dish you have is actually very well built for [/QUOTE]
