Yep, we're in for a rough night or two, stormy, windy weather is on it's way, so if you're unsure about your dish's mounting, tie the thing down so it doesn't end up in someone's greenhouse 3 miles away!!! :-rofl2

Good advise m8. I once had a 1.8m that ended up in next doors garden.

No one hurt, just the arms were bent to hell!'O'-red

I have learned from that.;)

The weather doesn't seem to be as bad as predicted, although we've had torrential spells of rain, the wind has been gusty, but not gale force.

Possible, cos the wind's currently coming from the west and that's the direction which the dish is in.... :D

But I don't think it'd be much use after taking an impromptu flight then a crash landing... :-rofl2
