Absolutely no chance. The weight of the dish, the continuing wind loading and some stray 25kg bags of sand saw to that. You had to be there. Fortunately the dish face and its rear bracketry remained fine.

I'd have had a u/s arm and damaged braces to boot. Possibly damage to the dish rim, or worse, too.

And the dish is no longer in use anyway, for other reasons.
