I am trying to set up a system (on the cheap!) for the very first time. I have a TM 5200 USB, and a Fortec star HH90 motor from Maplins. My problem is I have scrounged a dish off my brother he wasnt using. Its old but in excellent nick. It is 90 cm wide and has Fuba Sat witten on the dish. The bracket that holds the LNB has a small aperture of only 2.8 cm or 11/8 inches in old money. I have bought a lnb from my local Maplins but its too fat for the dish bracket. Is there such a thing as a slim lnb that would fit my small bracket?
Secondly I have set a scaffold pole (vertically true!!) into the the ground at the top of the garden, with the wifes permission!! and will mount the dish on the pole. It is about 65 metres from my TM 5200. For this dist do I need special cable or will any do?
Thanks in hope of your help
