my 3 dishes

[p]

have a zone 2 with 42e 28e 19e 13e and 5e

and 60cm on 30w

all 6 lnbs go to a 8 way switch running into a technomate 1500

and my motorised 90cm gregorian 48e to 45w running of a manhattan 6800

Nice setup!!

Any complaints from neighbours?

What motor are you using on the 90cm dish?

 

[2cvbloke]

Nice setup, plenty of satellites to watch, assuming there's something good on!!!

Your aerial's in a really bad spot though, as depicted by the damaged element on the reflector, which will impair it's performance, you might want to consider moving it somewhere else...

 

[CROSSBONES]

Very nice! Did you extend the lnb arm on the zone 2 dish, to allow for the correct focal distance?

Also like the Gregorian dish;)

no complaints

the motor that came with it, HtoH, was one of the expensive sct i think ones, back in the day!

the aerial's a temp thing, moved the bottom element so not to foul the dish!

[CROSSBONES]

Hmmmmm are you that mod from the other side?;)

 

[p]

nope im not a mod anywhere, but if your reffering to the other side as pimps, then there is a mod there who done it first, I copied and addapted his set up a little with the zone 2.

 

[Topper]

Certainly looks the business, well done did you not need a stronger bracket with the extra weight of the multiple lnbs?

not gone for any extra support, tho its quite low down about 4ft off the ground and quite shelded from wind

not much,

TNT ( a few bbc / itv programs )

[pez909]

What kind of bracket is that on the Sky dish? Wouldn't mind getting Turksat and Sky from the one.Is the Turksat reception OK?

 

[wa1es_4_ever]

Yes i would like to know what sort of bracket you used on the minidish to hold the lnbs too. it looks really good

 

[p]

it was a Multi Feed Holder for a Gibertini dish, fixed to the dish via a 2" extention. the extention piece being 20x30mm L shaped alu bar, cable tied to the original arm.
