done, sold to garyg. for 800 GBP

Hi, my first reply to malsat was due to a lack of offers, my boss; (who owns the dish) doesnt wants the best price he can get. Channel Hopper, you put an offer in of £750. I never replied to your offer saying I would accept it, meanwhile gary put in an offer (however incorrectly in a pm, and i...

Hi, Sorry for all this confusion. I was abroad at IBC over the weekend. Gary, did contact me via PM asking why i wanted to sell it, when he offered a price I asked him to put this into the thread AS PER FORUM RULES, feel free to examine my inbox if you wish. The offer stands at £800 from...

I will have to go back to my work and ask them; £750 would be much easier to get them to agree on. When would you be able to collect it?

Original post of the install is here: http://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/dish-setup-single-sat-multi-sat-motorised-systems/157397-2-4m-raven-formerly-asc-signal-formerly-andrews-formerly-channel-master-dish-inst.html Sadly, the time has come for me to sell the dish, it was purchased for a work...

yes and i have no reason to suspect it changing in the future.

No, I've actually got a set of exterity pro encoders to the job but I wouldn't rate them highly despite their 4.5k price tag if I was going to do this again I would possibly use slingboxes and then do an encoding of the pictures at the remote location into an ip stream

It's all bolts to construct any welding is from fabrication look at the component pictures to get a netter idea thanks

Absolutely no problems at any time of the day from my location to get nilesat on a 2.4m dish Could'nt fault it :)

You should have no difficulty in adjusting the reflector to a 30 degree ~ angle. the picture you attached is identical to the bracket that the unit ships with. This would appear to be another instance of Raven trying to sell items that are not required. I experienced a similar issue when i...

I used the horn that came with it, and an invacom c120, the dish comes with a load of metalwork to support rx/tx but it all got removed and i just connected directly to the feed

i'm getting all the transponders *i think* and very good quality. It seems slightly overkill also dish size wise from my location, but i only did a basic test of obscuring a portion of the dish by standing directly infront of part of the reflector.

oh one more thing, i would'nt know about extra transponders, unfortunatly i only need the 2 used for EPL games, and i spent alot of time focusing the dish to pick these up as strongly as possible. I have no plans to re-orient the dish as its been used to stream pictures to our analysis center in...

lol thanks for the warm comments, this is my first install, but luckily i had the bank roll to do it well. The trade price for this dish should be ammended, as i've said paradigm are retailing these dishes at 1350 ex vat with the kingpost at 365 ex vat. I will take some more high res photos...

i've got every nilesat transponder and all are over 80% quality when overcast, today was bright and it was up near 95% on my technomate box neighbours helped me build it :) and yes i have showtime channels. Its possible the dish is overkill, but its for commercial use (my garden is only a...
