[QUOTE="Spiff, post: 996485, member: 404998"] Thank you for your kind comment : ) The precision mount was very straight forward to set up and works perfectly. The way it is built, like a tank, I am sure it will stand up to the high winds we get here. The Jacks were second hand but it comes up on the sats every time, right on the button : ) I love the way it looks and works, like a proper piece of equipment should. I have had two H2H motors the elephant trunk type, both had lots of problems with wind shifting the clamps. Also the bolt that holds the trunk to the motor spindle not holding tight and the dish drooping. Very messy to set up as all the adjustments are so crude, never again. I have not set my Jaeger motor up yet so cannot comment on that one, it is brand new in a box and so nice I may just leave it there : ) The thought of putting it out in all that salt air no no. As to our location it is a holiday gift and clothing shop built round 1930, we live on two floors above the shop. The dish pole is mounted on the old pottery wall which is now my radio workshop, I can get at the dish and mount from a balcony we have at the rear, it is also as sheltered as it can be in that location. Due west is out to sea 50 yards away. This link is to find a new tennant for the shop, but it has some pictures of the front of the building, the pottery is on the left side.
