[QUOTE="phil2spill, post: 964984, member: 407932"] Just as an epilogue: Triax 64cm dish and Foxsat HD installed today in place of the old Lidl setup at my Mum and Dad's place. I was able to reuse the cable, just with a new F-plug on the outdoor end. Great to have the luxury of calibrated elevation angles on the clamp and being able to preset that and then just swing the dish around the mast to find Astra 2E -- much easier than trying to sort both adjustments outdoors, up a ladder with the old system. Although not optimised since I just had the Lidl audible aid, hopefully it will prove better in rainstorms than the smaller dish. It certainly feels more solidly attached to the mast so fingers crossed that it will survive the gales. The picture looks great on their new £279 'dumb' (simple, no smart features) Samsung 40" TV. As a simple and inexpensive system for non technical folks, it fits the bill and the parents are chuffed to bits. Thanks for your advice. [/QUOTE]
