My Satellite Setup
Tm6900 HD Combo super+
Tm1500 CS Super +
1M motorised dish
My Location
Kent coast
This is my sat set up, at the moment my 1m dish is locted at the end of the garden but my range of sats is restricted by trees, so i am moving it onto a small section of flat roof on the house, the roof is covered in lead so i dont want to make holes in it hence all the brackets. Any suggestions how to improve the set up would be more than welcome.

Nice set up.

A non penetrating roof mount might be the ticket if there's space.

Use a cable tie to secure the cable from the motor to the LNB to the pole a few i8nches below the motor - Repeated movement across the arc can result in the F connector at the motor end gradually coming loose. By securing the cable to the pole this cannot happen.


But a very nice installation :)

Thanks satelliteman
I thought about it but its is a fairly narrow area and thought the mount together with any ballast may restrict the rainfall run off, as it has the rainfall of three roofs on it.
