Utilising existing t/k brackets

[4dbennett]

Hi guys i am thinking of drilling my existing satellite t/k brackets and fitting an extension pole to fit a digital ariel, will the setup be strong enough to do this ?? I have a 90cm motorised dish on the brackets
see the attached photo.

I wouldn't drill and make any news holes on the bracket itself. This will weaken the whole bracket design & structure.

OK thanks satelliteman, i just thought i could do this instead of fitting new brackets,

the other problem is if the wind makes the aerial sway (which is usually OK for an aerial) it can move the dish ...which isn't OK.
