Finished my new setup a few months ago, here are some pics.
The motorized 1.2 channel master is fed into the sitting room into a vbox,
dm 500s,Tm 5200,and echo lite total tv box for 16 e.
The 1m channel master is pointing at 28.2e and the other 1.2 channel master is at 26e, they are fed from dual output lnb,s into the box on the wall which has two diseqc switches and then from there two cables, one for the main bedroom and other for the kids room.

Before i started i used my friends iphone with the dishpointer app to see if i could get low horizon satellites, especially on the eastern side as the fence and out of view there is the roof of a house, I could see all sats clear, but i double checked with a spare dish on a temp stand before a dug the hole for the motorized dish.

A nice setup and yes, I know what you mean. Sometimes when I see sloppy or badly fixed cables on the side of a house it hurts my eyes and I want to go fix it.

That looks just like one i would do. I'm a cable tidy freak too.

It used to annoy the hell out of my old boss, I used to get through more cable ties than anybody else in the company, and i was still faster than some of the others. :-lmao

Yes remlap i got the sticker.
I had another channel master that i had which i put the sticker on, I then came across some 1.2 channel masters that were like brand new, at 60 euro each i had to get them, so i replaced the 1 on the motor with the new 1, but i will put the 1 with the sticker you gave me up at some stage.

Less than that if your uk based from eBay etc.

The cm sticker has come off mine, I think I prefer it without any sticker on the dish face.

The pole which motorized channel master is on is concreted 3 foot into the ground.
The other fixed channel master is bolted into 2 4inch blocks lying on there flat, It is fine as its shielded from the wind, Also i have another block sitting on 1 of the blocks for more support.

I'm sure they are. I got them off a polish guy who puts up channel master dishs on betting shops, so whenever the move premises or there is a problem, they just take it down and put up a new 1, I would'nt mind there like brand new.

I got them from adverts.ie and the guy is based in dublin, he has them advertised at 150, but i got it without the azel mount for 60.
