[QUOTE="s-band, post: 1112032, member: 407744"] There's a discussion about a counter-balance for a 1.8CM here: [URL unfurl="true"]https://satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/channel-master-1-8-restoration.169213/page-3#post-1013414[/URL] The result was something that was described as 'steampunk' I would be reluctant to put a 1.8CM on an IRTE polar mount and here's the counterbalance setup on an az-el mount: [URL unfurl="true"]https://satellites.co.uk/forums/attachments/p-t_8e21810-jpg.109920/[/URL] Unless you really want/need the 1.6dB (theoretical) advantage of the 1.8m, what's wrong with the IRTE reflector? <edit> I just realised your IRTE is a 1.2m not 1.5m so that's 3.5dB less than a 1.8m [/QUOTE]
