[QUOTE="stocksie, post: 175845, member: 194047"] Just bought the Omnisat from local paper ad. £25. Always wanted one to maybe follow the wayward orbiters and stop the continuous tweaking of my perfectly good dish! (Just that little bit more!!) Got it running but now realise a) the mechanics are far too light weight to take anything larger than a 6ocm dish and B) the dish mount pole does not rotate, the whole top lid of the box turns. This means there is no auto offset applied to the lnb. The publicity pictures give a false impression, showing the pole back at about the right angle. Did the magazine (Wotsat etc) write ups of the time pick this up? I cannot believe IRTE didnt think of this!! Anybody tried altering the mount to correct for this? Boy...am I glad I didnt give the £250 price at the time! [/QUOTE]
