[QUOTE="RedAltoGL, post: 117957, member: 193567"] I dug a hole 2ft square by 3ft deep, screwed some metal cross pieces to a 10 ft scaffold pole (to stop it twisting). Dropped it in the hole, poured in a bag of "post set" threw in some old broken bricks and lumps of steel , topped up with another bag of "post set" and tamped it all down. Fixed a couple of wooden battens to hold the pole upright and poured a bucket of water over the whole lot, hour later all set and upright, job done. Tried it out with a mates spare HH120 motor and Triax 1.1m dish got signals from 53 degrees east to 61 degrees west. Now quite happy running with my 90 x 85cm dish and receiving from 45 east to 45 west on the outskirts of London. Redmund [/QUOTE]
