[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 1076212, member: 199791"] Well, it wasn't the can & can't do, it was just the excitement of getting signals via somewhat silly means, like my Lidl 70cm dish with an upside-down LNB with a sock over it, the BSB Squarial receiving Linear signals, my BSB Minidish modified to take a modern 40mm LNB, and seeing how my old Ferguson TV coped with going between PAL and SECAM analogue sat channels (not always well!!), I miss those days... :( Today I don't even have the minidish outside hooked up to anything, mostly cos the landlord stuffed the cables away into somewhere I can't presently open up, but also cos, well, I can't be arsed... :lol: But back on topic, maybe bashing a straight pole into the ground at an appropriately jaunty angle to mount the Z2 dish onto might work? Of course the angle would need to be calculated based on their Lat. & Long. position, but that way they could push the dish back & forth if they felt like switching satellites... :confused [/QUOTE]
