[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 653722, member: 323322"] Yes, I think in cases like yours greater precision is probably de rigeur. Must try to remember than not all of us have the luxury of virtually infallible signals on the main Satellites of interest :) I do take your point that using your fancy level jobbie takes out small fore and aft errors in pole plumb, though. A good point, well made. But don't you find that when you finish off the assembly and mount the Dish to the stub, for example, that not only can it be quite a task to get the dish bang on the frontal datum on the stub but it can also be a bit of a sod to keep it there whilst tightening up the clamps? Many of us have found that a little tricky, especially with heavy dishes like the TD110 and particularly if compelled to work in less than benign locations. [/QUOTE]
