Having suffered from wind loading issues on an 80cm mesh,I would recommend the motor and bracketry be mounted at a height which may offer some degree of protection where possible,I invariably set up my install on Hottie @13E rather than Thor,the signal is massive from it,after that providing you...

Thanks Satelliteman,I didnt think it could be done,just wanted to know of any workarounds,current set-up will suffice 2nd fta box comes in handy as sat meter also..Quad lnb fitted to motorised dish at present.

Trying to put a second FTA sat box to good use,have instaled cabling to quad uni lnb on 80cm mesh dish the stb's are Tm-5200D and Tm-3000D,the 5200 being the closest to the dish to reduce volt drop,all cabling CT100.Question is I wish to know if the two boxes can be configured to control the...

Can confirm the dish build is correct,built the same dish yesterday,motor can take upto 1.2m dish (same motor I have),as stated previous I would be reluctant to install this dish in such an exposed environment.I have re-installed my 80cm mesh onto the motor setup (wind loading factor) and can...

Reading the thread with great interest,count me in..presently scanning 15w,BBC Persian,may yeild some midnights..

BBC Alba,and BBC 7,bound to be next on the chopping block..?

This is a strange one for me!,some TP's come and go,but this is filed under fringe reception for me with my 80cm mesh dish!!

I have experienced the same issues on 16E,was thinking about an lnb change,however that last bit of info from Hexah,has answered a question for me.About a month ago i was getting a watchable signal on 16E,12626/4520,Radio Capri Television,but have since noticed a 3% decline in signal quality,but...

Hi Hexah,couldnt help noticing your set-up,similar to mine and your latitude aint too far from me either.What sort of reception do you have with 16E,in particular I have problems receiving the Capri bouquet,any joy at your end?

Got Auckland on Sky News Itnl on 19.2E.

Morning sat zappers!.am cleaning snow of the lnb as we speak!.hope everyone has success in this event and keep all informed and entertained as the day progresses

any joy from some of the Westerly sats?? anyone..or are well all too drunk/relying on the net??

mmm what are those twin and earth cables clipped direct to the house feeding???..

Ask Robbie Williams,Mr A,I think he knows!!!

went back to initial setup on my motorised setup,initially had issues with 1W,so using 13E as a reference,I got a good lock on it,then went to 1W,increased my reception by about 20%.Used a horizon sat meter to fine tune in conjunction with on board sat receiver sig qual and strength.Would...
