I have an official Polsat card in a Technomate 1500. In the last few weeks I've lost some channels. Is it because Polsat is now Nagra 3? Can anyone suggest what I'll need to change (cam, receiver etc) to get them back? Cheers

Unless there are several packaging standards, the 1.8m Andrews dish face comes in a cardboard box approx. 2.1m x 2.1m x 0.3m and the AZEL mount comes in a separate box approx. 0.3m x 0.3m x 0.6m. Both of which can easily be transported on a trailer of suitalble size.

Satelliteman Out of curiosity, what made you vhange the T&K position from the old setup to the new setup?

I take it you (or the electrician) will connect the earth on the multiswitch to the MET? LOL

Looking good Michael. Regarding the earth cable, is it necessary for all the earth loops? You could use the earth tag on the multiswitch but you would have to be a little more careful if you ever had to swap out the multiswitch if it ever failed. The way you have it now means all you have to...

Wouldn't go for a DiSEqC motor myself for that size dish in an exposed location. Try the Jaeger Supermount 99g or the Triax polar mount.

Scaffold pole is usually 48.3mm and the CM 1.2 needs a 76mm pole

You are correct.

Thanks Rd100, a true Channel Master/Andrew/ASC Signal fountain of knowledge as always. Don't you get sick of constantly updating your Avatars? LOL The ASC mounts look very much like Baird Satellite mounts to me.

Has anyone any experience of companies that fabricate non-penetrating mounts for the Andrew 1.8m and 2.4m offset dishes. Thanks in advance.

You must have long ladders! You sure you're not a fireman? LOL

Try the eye in the back of the Skybox, at least then you can tell if it's a Skybox/eye issue or a cabling/distibution amp issue.

Probably not best to post your address on a public forum but... Dish should be ok on the far left or right of your south facing wall (clearing the building to the south). If you have to put it in the middle, put it as high up the wall as you can to clear the roof of the building to the south.
