I have 3 dishes up and running, 85cm.120cm and 150cm, plus two 2m dishes ( one alu and one glassfiber ) and a second 120cm . The alu 2m is about to get strippet from az/el earlier use to polarmount. The reason for originally having so many dishes is: In the south there are many trees and I can't cut them all away. I used to sell and install dishes in the eighties boomperiode for BUD's and had easy access to them. I used the 2 meter alu for weak analog signals with two motors. I have used it for digital too, but want to change to polarmount for easier use with today's digital tuners. The 85cm offset is pointed to Telstar 12,15west, has 0,2 db LNB and goes via diseqC switch to Fortec Star Lifetime Ultra 0volt input. The 85cm will have Quattro when final best position is found above trees . The 120cm centerfeed have a 18inc puls motor and polarmount , but is steared by an old positioner , and have Invacom Quattro to multiswitch . It seas from 33 east to 15 west but has obstacles ( steel grid fence at each not so low horizon ). The 150cm has 12inch reed sensor motor HARL 3612 and VBOX with Invacom Quattro LNB 0,3db to 17/8 multiswitch. It sees from 42 east to 5 west due to obstacles . The 2 meter alu will have Invacom Quattro LNB 0,3db or new Universal combi c/ku lnb, 18inch HARL 3618+ with reeed switch to Vbox. This will go to multiswich or diseqC swich depending on lnb.The 2m VBOX is stearded by a Technomate TM-1000D super and have reached 42 east to 31 west before. 3 pc's and two tuners is linked to 17/8 multiswich, and standalone can also have a diseqc switch before the multiswitch with DiseqC 1,1 and over ! I'm trying out all sorts of combinations with switches and motors. I have also fiund an easy circuit for connecting pulsmotor to Vbox ! It's all great fun with PC recording/burning and PVR as well as Panasonic ES10 dvd burner onto DVD-RAM This give me a total solution with high flexibillities. I record music video programs as well as best nature programs ( BBC !).
lol Very sorry mate.;)
