[QUOTE="RimaNTSS, post: 935840, member: 312276"] So, I've played with 1m PFA Prodelin. Even it is PFA, it has 60* opening angle, that means usual LNB can be used, that is what I did. Polar-mount was desighned for offset antenna, that was an issue to solve. That was done by adding some nuts between mount and rails (red circles) [ATTACH]81269[/ATTACH] anyway it was temporary solution. Got good following of arc from 45*E (further East neighbor's house does not allow) to 12,5*W and decent signals on all satellites. By now already removed 1m dish and installed 1,2m Prodelin. Actually this polar-mount came together with this dish. [ATTACH]81270[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]81271[/ATTACH] Got same arc with much better signals (of course it is bigger dish :) ). Instead of actuator I use special tool, with it I can move antenna H-H just in couple of seconds. [ATTACH]81272[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
