Yes they told me send it back they send new one out you know with jack motor only pushes dish one way then comes back on its self do i push whole dish to 28east then set it as that go by all sats and store them never had jack motor before
 
Nice dish.

Assuming the dish is on the arc, extend the actuator around half way and attach to the polar mount for 1W. Pan the dish and saves positions via the receiver using DiSEqC 1.2 commands. This will save to the Vbox.

It doesn't matter what order you store them in, as long as the DiSEqC position number corresponds with that stored in the satellite receiver.
 
Thanks guys just waiting get my vbox been having bit of bad luck with them
 
Its a INVACOM SNF-031 'C120' 0.3dB its performing better than my black ultra i have cm feed horn on there to,i have a school next to me there loads trees high as 2 houses i was having problems locking on 1w with black ultra couldn't lock on to it at all
 
It fitted on easy had no problems at all,ya to west of my garden there loads a trees in line all way down school these trees very high to pain in the ass be glad when winter comes leaves fall off
 
Nice! - good to see some backyard mounting!

It looks like your tube is mounted in a slab, but what's the legs mounted on? they look screwed into something, but what?

(I have a similar mount I used for testing...)
