[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 865584, member: 176362"] My landlord thinks Im nuts but he still comes round to ask questions occasionally :D None of them are anything like permanently mounted - I just bang fenceposts into the ground and bolt the dishes to those. Ok they need realigning every so often but thats part of the fun. Oh and I guarantee you will align a dish onto the wrong satellite at some point - we have all done it at some point or another - you hit the scan button and a completely unexpected selection of channels pops up! :D Have a look here: [url]http://www.flysat.com/satlist.php[/url] We cant get everything on this list, but the selection of satellites in my signature are in the main fairly easy to get although once you get round past 40E the dishes start to look very strange as they lean forward to follow the arc! Now somewhere on the forum there is a very nice diagram that shows how the orbital arc works. I'll see if I can find it [/QUOTE]
