Hi all, I have a current problem with this matter. As @Channel Hopper knows , my power cables( although quite thick') run a good 90m from the actuator to the house and at the end of each ark ( 30w to 62E) I have trouble getting back the dish( giant 3.7m prodelin) to the center, after 5-6...

Hey Maestro. How have you been? I think they want to have an attic/ terrace with the view. But it will take forever to finish :)

Ok here is the custom extension and the actuator.

I would be also in line for this :)

Dear Sat enthusiastics, have some exciting news. I got the Prodelin working, after some custom steel and iron parts added to the pole, installed a second motor for vertical movement about 15 cm `s up and down, so little problems at the arc can be corrected. Signal levels boosted at least...

Are you interested Moonbase?

Reporting from , Greece , very southeastern island of Rodos . My very functional and effective dish Famaval 3.1 m has following signal rates on William-1`s ref. frequencies: Astra-2G @ 28.2 east 10964 H 22000 Channel 5 Astra-2F @ 28.2 east 12207 V 27500 5/6 Sky News and Astra-2E @ 28.5...

Pure relaxation..Astonishing quality

That one has a different polar mount and professional motor I reckon?

It is a 2016 made dish and manual indicates that kU band with polar.

Mr. Kypros Pambou from this forum, claims that the dish is made for C band and Ku band performance will be much lower. That is why its underperforming. According to his statement :( Today I will realign the dish and try to make test to see about any improvement.:-ohcrap One question: how to...

The manual said it focal distance is at 24 inches so we placed a 137cm stick between the central lines of the dish and feedhorn. I am hoping this is correct. 1.90 for the height was too high as the top of the dish and lnb would be out of the reach..

Nope but it is a friend's so could be used as much as needed . I am quite close to Rodos airport ( we have only one here in the island) so its the target for flights :) Here are the strings and how the panels align now ; what do you say masters?

We do the shaking now, it has corrected itself to a degree but Im not %100 about the shape. I will make new pictures now

Al I can get the tickets for you and our holiday house has couple of extra rooms to accomodate as many days as you wish. I dont think its a 1 day job :) Alright, here are the pictures a bit detailed as you asked for: hope it helps
