Nice wee temp setup. I have this kit, which includes a 12v sat. box, and used it with some success during my days as a travelling trucker :)

Cheers NP. Good pics of all the weeds in my garden as well :D:D

Cheers Tivu, I'll keep an eye on things. I'm running a Fortec Passion + to drive the motor, a frustrating wee beastie at times, but a good enough box when it decides to behave. I'm using USALS, so don't have any software limits set or anything. Usually going to the USALS setup and selecting 'Go...

Cheers for the comments guys :) Not entirely sure what you mean Tivu - would I need to bring the cable straight from the LNB to the pole, tie it there, and then run it to the motor, rather than bringing it up between the dish and the motor? I've had to drive the motor east manually today...

At long last some piccies of my self-installed dish. 58W - 53E clear as a bell. Credit to these forums for all the info on how to do it :) Have to say that a ground install is way preferable to wobbling about up a ladder :D

The lnb holder on the older Orbital dishes fixes on with one screw underneath like yours marty. Mine sheared off recently (portable tripod blew over in a gale, ho hum :mad:) and when I ordered up a replacement it was a completely different fitting, so obviously newer models have changed design...

Looks like my Orbital dish feedarm, in which case you can obtain a proprietary LNB bracket kit which gives 3 to 9 degrees of separation, or use two together for a wider spread.
