DISH SETUP: Single sat, Multi-Sat & Motorised
Will 18" T&K (with 110cm dish) give enough standoff to reach all sat's?

[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 458813, member: 256551"] A 110 cm dish when turned 45 degrees, will project backwards by approx 39cm. It will also be sticking out side ways by 39cm. A wall at 45 degrees i.e south east will project forward by 39cm, where the edge of the dish is, when at 45 degrees. Thus to be able to go to 45 degrees on the Western side the total space between the wall and the centre of the dish needs to be approx 78cm or more (30 inches) The motor spaces it out a bit, say 6 inches. The dish is also curved, so another few inches. My conclusion, 18 inches too short, 24 should do it. If in doubt, get a big piece of cardboard and try it. Robbo [/QUOTE]
