Hello All,

I have picked up a CM 1.2 on a well known auction site however I missing am missing bolts to attach the dish to the pole mount. Anyone know where I could get them ? Or have ideas of measurements?

Could also do with some new u bolts but not urgent.

Thanks

Mark

Look for M8 x 60mm furniture bolts as on the picture. Stainless steel, of course. IMG_20240508_232351.jpg

That was why my question, as original CM mount has no U-bolts. In this case, you can measure an old U-bolt and purchase the same one. Do you have an idea what kind of pole will you use to hang your CM120?

I have a few scaffolding poles concreted in the garden so probs one of them, I'm more concerned about the lack of measurements on the dish brackets, however I guess I could just work out by getting the strongest signal.

This dish will be at ground level and not attached to a house for sure.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

No DiSEqC motor based on the Taiwanese designs had U bolts as a clamp, they would be four sides of a hexagon with a toothed plate closed by two 13mm nuts.
